Can't dlopen() a library containing Thread Local Storage

Hi,

I have a small test c program which tries to dlopen a shared library(libjvm.sl).

But i get error as "Can't dlopen() a library containing Thread Local Storage"

My program is as below

Quote:

#include <stdio.h>
#include <errno.h>
#include <dlfcn.h>

void main(void)
{
void *handle;
handle = dlopen("/opt/weblogic810sp3/jdk142_03/jre/lib/PA_RISC/server/libjvm.sl", RTLD_LAZY);
if( handle == NULL )
{
printf("errno[%d], errmsg[%s]\n", errno, dlerror());
return;
}
else
{
printf("\nJVM loaded successfully");
}
dlclose(handle);
}

when i run the program i get error

Quote:

$ testjvm
errno[0], errmsg[Can't dlopen() a library containing Thread Local Storage: /opt/weblogic810sp3/jdk142_03/jre/lib/PA_RISC/server/libjvm.sl]
$
