Interface Libraries                                   libdl(3LIB)



NAME
     libdl - dynamic linking library

SYNOPSIS
     cc [ flag... ] file... -ldl [ library... ]


DESCRIPTION
     Historically, functions in libdl provided for dynamic  link-
     ing support. This functionality now resides in libc(3LIB).


     This library is maintained to provide backward compatibility
     for  both  runtime  and compilation environments. The shared
     object is implemented as a filter on the runtime linker. See
     ld.so.1(1).  New  application  development  need not specify
     -ldl.

INTERFACES
     The shared object libdl.so.1 provides the  following  public
     interfaces.  See  Intro(3)  for  additional  information  on
     shared object interfaces.

     dlclose                       dldump
