Top Forums Programming How to make use others' C library installed not for the system-wide (Ubuntu/Linux)? Post 303043007 by GRMartin on Wednesday 15th of January 2020 06:17:24 PM

If you link to a shared library intead of the archive it's a little more complicted. If the shared library isn't installed in a directory know to the loader then you need to tell it where to find it. The rpath option I mentioned is passed to the linker and added to the executable. As long as the shared library is in the same place it will find it. You can also set LD_LIBRARY_PATH to the directory where it is. One way to do this (in a bash shell) is:
Code:
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/yifangt/Study/C/VCF/htslib-1.10.2; ./vcf_parser01

LD.SO(8)						     Linux Programmer's Manual							  LD.SO(8)

NAME
ld.so, ld-linux.so* - dynamic linker/loader SYNOPSIS
The dynamic linker can be run either indirectly by running some dynamically linked program or library (in which case no command-line options to the dynamic linker can be passed and, in the ELF case, the dynamic linker which is stored in the .interp section of the program is executed) or directly by running: /lib/ld-linux.so.* [OPTIONS] [PROGRAM [ARGUMENTS]] DESCRIPTION
The programs ld.so and ld-linux.so* find and load the shared libraries needed by a program, prepare the program to run, and then run it. Linux binaries require dynamic linking (linking at run time) unless the -static option was given to ld(1) during compilation. The program ld.so handles a.out binaries, a format used long ago; ld-linux.so* handles ELF (/lib/ld-linux.so.1 for libc5, /lib/ld- linux.so.2 for glibc2), which everybody has been using for years now. Otherwise both have the same behavior, and use the same support files and programs ldd(1), ldconfig(8) and /etc/ld.so.conf. The shared libraries needed by the program are searched for in the following order: o (ELF only) Using the directories specified in the DT_RPATH dynamic section attribute of the binary if present and DT_RUNPATH attribute does not exist. Use of DT_RPATH is deprecated. o Using the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH. Except if the executable is a set-user-ID/set-group-ID binary, in which case it is ignored. o (ELF only) Using the directories specified in the DT_RUNPATH dynamic section attribute of the binary if present. o From the cache file /etc/ld.so.cache which contains a compiled list of candidate libraries previously found in the augmented library path. If, however, the binary was linked with the -z nodeflib linker option, libraries in the default library paths are skipped. o In the default path /lib, and then /usr/lib. If the binary was linked with the -z nodeflib linker option, this step is skipped. $ORIGIN and rpath ld.so understands the string $ORIGIN (or equivalently ${ORIGIN}) in an rpath specification (DT_RPATH or DT_RUNPATH) to mean the directory containing the application executable. Thus, an application located in somedir/app could be compiled with gcc -Wl,-rpath,'$ORIGIN/../lib' so that it finds an associated shared library in somedir/lib no matter where somedir is located in the directory hierarchy. This facili- tates the creation of "turn-key" applications that do not need to be installed into special directories, but can instead be unpacked into any directory and still find their own shared libraries. OPTIONS
--list List all dependencies and how they are resolved. --verify Verify that program is dynamically linked and this dynamic linker can handle it. --library-path PATH Override LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable setting (see below). --inhibit-rpath LIST Ignore RPATH and RUNPATH information in object names in LIST. This option is ignored if ld.so is set-user-ID or set-group-ID. ENVIRONMENT
There are four important environment variables. LD_BIND_NOW (libc5; glibc since 2.1.1) If set to a nonempty string, causes the dynamic linker to resolve all symbols at program startup instead of deferring function call resolution to the point when they are first referenced. This is useful when using a debugger. LD_LIBRARY_PATH A colon-separated list of directories in which to search for ELF libraries at execution-time. Similar to the PATH environment vari- able. LD_PRELOAD A whitespace-separated list of additional, user-specified, ELF shared libraries to be loaded before all others. This can be used to selectively override functions in other shared libraries. For set-user-ID/set-group-ID ELF binaries, only libraries in the standard search directories that are also set-user-ID will be loaded. LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS (ELF only) If set to a nonempty string, causes the program to list its dynamic library dependencies, as if run by ldd(1), instead of running normally. Then there are lots of more or less obscure variables, many obsolete or only for internal use. LD_AOUT_LIBRARY_PATH (libc5) Version of LD_LIBRARY_PATH for a.out binaries only. Old versions of ld-linux.so.1 also supported LD_ELF_LIBRARY_PATH. LD_AOUT_PRELOAD (libc5) Version of LD_PRELOAD for a.out binaries only. Old versions of ld-linux.so.1 also supported LD_ELF_PRELOAD. LD_AUDIT (glibc since 2.4) A colon-separated list of user-specified, ELF shared objects to be loaded before all others in a separate linker namespace (i.e., one that does not intrude upon the normal symbol bindings that would occur in the process). These libraries can be used to audit the operation of the dynamic linker. LD_AUDIT is ignored for set-user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. The dynamic linker will notify the audit libraries at so-called auditing checkpoints--for example, loading a new library, resolving a symbol, or calling a symbol from another shared object--by calling an appropriate function within the audit library. For details, see rtld-audit(7). The auditing interface is largely compatible with that provided on Solaris, as described in its Linker and Libraries Guide, in the chapter Runtime Linker Auditing Interface. LD_BIND_NOT (glibc since 2.1.95) Do not update the GOT (global offset table) and PLT (procedure linkage table) after resolving a symbol. LD_DEBUG (glibc since 2.1) Output verbose debugging information about the dynamic linker. If set to all prints all debugging information it has, if set to help prints a help message about which categories can be specified in this environment variable. Since glibc 2.3.4, LD_DEBUG is ignored for set-user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT (glibc since 2.1) File where LD_DEBUG output should be fed into, default is standard output. LD_DEBUG_OUTPUT is ignored for set- user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. LD_DYNAMIC_WEAK (glibc since 2.1.91) Allow weak symbols to be overridden (reverting to old glibc behavior). For security reasons, since glibc 2.3.4, LD_DYNAMIC_WEAK is ignored for set-user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. LD_HWCAP_MASK (glibc since 2.1) Mask for hardware capabilities. LD_KEEPDIR (a.out only)(libc5) Don't ignore the directory in the names of a.out libraries to be loaded. Use of this option is strongly dis- couraged. LD_NOWARN (a.out only)(libc5) Suppress warnings about a.out libraries with incompatible minor version numbers. LD_ORIGIN_PATH (glibc since 2.1) Path where the binary is found (for non-set-user-ID programs). For security reasons, since glibc 2.4, LD_ORI- GIN_PATH is ignored for set-user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. LD_POINTER_GUARD (glibc since 2.4) Set to 0 to disable pointer guarding. Any other value enables pointer guarding, which is also the default. Pointer guarding is a security mechanism whereby some pointers to code stored in writable program memory (return addresses saved by setjmp(3) or function pointers used by various glibc internals) are mangled semi-randomly to make it more difficult for an attacker to hijack the pointers for use in the event of a buffer overrun or stack-smashing attack. LD_PROFILE (glibc since 2.1) Shared object to be profiled, specified either as a pathname or a soname. Profiling output is written to the file whose name is: "$LD_PROFILE_OUTPUT/$LD_PROFILE.profile". LD_PROFILE_OUTPUT (glibc since 2.1) Directory where LD_PROFILE output should be written. If this variable is not defined, or is defined as an empty string, then the default is /var/tmp. LD_PROFILE_OUTPUT is ignored for set-user-ID and set-group-ID programs, which always use /var/profile. LD_SHOW_AUXV (glibc since 2.1) Show auxiliary array passed up from the kernel. For security reasons, since glibc 2.3.5, LD_SHOW_AUXV is ignored for set-user-ID/set-group-ID binaries. LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS By default (i.e., if this variable is not defined) executables and prelinked shared objects will honor base addresses of their dependent libraries and (nonprelinked) position-independent executables (PIEs) and other shared objects will not honor them. If LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS is defined wit the value, both executables and PIEs will honor the base addresses. If LD_USE_LOAD_BIAS is defined with the value 0, neither executables nor PIEs will honor the base addresses. This variable is ignored by set-user-ID and set- group-ID programs. LD_VERBOSE (glibc since 2.1) If set to a nonempty string, output symbol versioning information about the program if querying information about the program (i.e., either LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS has been set, or --list or --verify options have been given to the dynamic linker). LD_WARN (ELF only)(glibc since 2.1.3) If set to a nonempty string, warn about unresolved symbols. LDD_ARGV0 (libc5) argv[0] to be used by ldd(1) when none is present. FILES
/lib/ld.so a.out dynamic linker/loader /lib/ld-linux.so.{1,2} ELF dynamic linker/loader /etc/ld.so.cache File containing a compiled list of directories in which to search for libraries and an ordered list of candidate libraries. /etc/ld.so.preload File containing a whitespace separated list of ELF shared libraries to be loaded before the program. lib*.so* shared libraries NOTES
The ld.so functionality is available for executables compiled using libc version 4.4.3 or greater. ELF functionality is available since Linux 1.1.52 and libc5. SEE ALSO
