I need some source code about ELF loading and SO dynamic linking.
Have you anything?
Thanks!

Have you read the ELF specification?

yes, sure. If I don't read specifications, I don't ask.

Hi,
There is a topic about this on page 1 of the OS Development forum at the moment (about SO's) and there have been several ELF topics discussed on the forum recently, including code snippets.
Cheers,
Adam
[edit]...and why have you posted the same response to JamesM on this forum 3 times, one with a slight change of wording?[/edit]

Ok. Could you post the link to this topic?
Sorry for my multiple posts, it's due to my internet connection (It's a long story).

There isn't any simple source code for this?

Yes - there's simple source code. Do send me a link to it when you write it, because I can't be bothered to learn for myself.
Thanks.

Hi,
I was going to ignore this, but as you've bumped your post:
1. Please search the forums for the topic. Firstly, there is a search function and secondly, if I mention that this topic appears on page 1, you can look through the titles and find the topic. Even by now, it can't be any further than page 2-3 of this forum.
2. Once you get to a certain point of OS development, you'll find the tutorials and spoon-fed code stops. You are better of reading the documentation and asking a specific question if you don't understand something (and if it hasn't been discussed on the forum a few days before).
3. Have you tried other sources such as the wiki and the web? I suspect not, since a Google search of "ELF relocation shared objects" gave me a pretty good link as the first hit.
All of the above means: "Don't expect someone else to do the legwork for you."
Cheers,
Adam
[edit]damn - too slow. perhaps I should stick to one-line answers![/edit]
