Programming

Anyone knows how to use dynamic module loading through dlopen/dlsym/dlclose properly on FreeBSD?

I wrote a tiny program to learn KDE programming. Perhaps I give you a small snippet to look at

Code:

int IPTablesApp::Start(int argc, char* argv[]) {
	typedef void (*init_t)(int, char*[]);
	init_t init;
	void *view = dlopen("./libkde-plugin.so", RTLD_NOW);
	if (!view) {
		// error loading libraries
		fprintf(stderr, "Interface library load error: %s\n", dlerror());
		return -1;
	} else {
		init = (init_t)dlsym(view, "_Init");
		init(argc, argv);
	}
	dlclose(view);
	return 0;
}

The KDE app is in libkde-plugin.so and is not shown here. Basically, when the app ends and execute the dlclose, gdb catches a segmentation fault for "Bad Address".

The same code runs okay on my Linux. Anyone can tell me if my way of using dl- functions are correct and are there workarounds (I saw some similar apps just comment out the dlclose line, but I don't know if this is proper or not)
