35 /* some flags are missing on some systems, so we provide
36 * harmless defaults.
38 * Mandatory:
39 * BIND_IMMEDIATE - Resolve symbol references when the library is loaded.
40 * BIND_DEFERRED - Delay code symbol resolution until actual reference.
42 * Optionally:
43 * BIND_FIRST - Place the library at the head of the symbol search order.
44 * BIND_NONFATAL - The default BIND_IMMEDIATE behavior is to treat all unsatisfied
45 * symbols as fatal. This flag allows binding of unsatisfied code
46 * symbols to be deferred until use.
47 * [Perl: For certain libraries, like DCE, deferred binding often
48 * causes run time problems. Adding BIND_NONFATAL to BIND_IMMEDIATE
49 * still allows unresolved references in situations like this.]
50 * BIND_NOSTART - Do not call the initializer for the shared library when the
51 * library is loaded, nor on a future call to shl_unload().
52 * BIND_VERBOSE - Print verbose messages concerning possible unsatisfied symbols.
54 * hp9000s700/hp9000s800:
55 * BIND_RESTRICTED - Restrict symbols visible by the library to those present at
56 * library load time.
57 * DYNAMIC_PATH - Allow the loader to dynamically search for the library specified
58 * by the path argument.

73 * shl_load() does not appear to support making symbols invisible to
74 * the global namespace. However, the default is to put the library
75 * last in the search order, which is approximately what we want,
76 * since it will cause symbols that conflict with existing symbols to
77 * be invisible. It is unclear if BIND_FIRST should be used when
78 * bind_local==0, since it may cause the loaded symbols to be used
79 * preferentially to the application's symbols, which is Almost
80 * Always Wrong. --ds
