.so coding

[stavefan]

Hi all,

I am curious as to how to build .so files using C++. Can anyone point me in the direction of a tutorial and/or book?

Thanks

If using gcc, generate your object files with -fpic.

gcc -fpic -c testfile.c
gcc -fpic -c testfile2.c

Then link your object files into a shared library with -shared

gcc -shared testfile.o testfile2.o -o libtestfile.so
