330e3d5408SPeter Wemm# Use this script as a wrapper when running executables linked to shared
340e3d5408SPeter Wemm# libraries on systems that use the $LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable and don't embed
350e3d5408SPeter Wemm# the soname's path within the linked executable (such as IRIX), e.g,
360e3d5408SPeter Wemm#
370e3d5408SPeter Wemm#	shlib knight
380e3d5408SPeter Wemm#
390e3d5408SPeter Wemm# Setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH, overrides/supplements the loader's normal search
400e3d5408SPeter Wemm# path, and works on most systems.  The drawback is that then the environment
410e3d5408SPeter Wemm# variable has to be set to run the programs within this directory tree.
420e3d5408SPeter Wemm#
430e3d5408SPeter Wemm# For Linux (and other systems using the GNU loader), we can use the rpath
440e3d5408SPeter Wemm# directive, which embeds the pathname of the library within the executable.
450e3d5408SPeter Wemm# Using the Linux loader's rpath directive introduces a constraint, since
460e3d5408SPeter Wemm# it's embedded into the binary, and means that the binary cannot be moved
470e3d5408SPeter Wemm# around (though it'll work if the $exec_prefix convention that puts the bin
480e3d5408SPeter Wemm# and lib directories under the same parent is followed).
490e3d5408SPeter Wemm#
500e3d5408SPeter Wemm# Using the actual soname (e.g., ../lib/libncurses.so) alone, is a more
510e3d5408SPeter Wemm# flexible solution; you can link without having to set the environment
520e3d5408SPeter Wemm# variable, and on some systems (IRIX) you can even run the resulting binaries
530e3d5408SPeter Wemm# without setting LD_LIBRARY_PATH.
540e3d5408SPeter Wemm#
550e3d5408SPeter Wemm# Using a conventional link, with -L and -l options on Linux results in a
560e3d5408SPeter Wemm# statically linked executable, which we don't want at all.
