LD_PRELOAD on HP UX?

Hi ,
Is LD_PRELOAD supported on HP UX?
I am having issues when i export the below

export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/local/vertex/commtax_1.0.16/64bit/lib/libctq.so

ldd /usr/local/vertex/commtax_1.0.16/64bit/lib/libctq.so
/usr/lib/hpux64/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libodbc.so'.
Killed


Can you please help at the earliest? Its very critical as we have few P1 defects .

LD_PRELOAD is meant to load interposing libraries at runtime, and it does work in HPUX.
What you are doing makes no sense to me....

Read the ld man page look for these two options: +interposer +noenvvar

Q: Why do I need to do LD_PRELOAD when a module includes threading?
Thread local storage needs to be enabled before the library is loaded. This should be eliminated in the HP-UX 11.23 OS release.
