1*0Sstevel@tonic-gateNOTES
2*0Sstevel@tonic-gate-----
3*0Sstevel@tonic-gate
4*0Sstevel@tonic-gateI've checked out HPUX (well, version 11 at least) and shl_t is
5*0Sstevel@tonic-gatea pointer type so it's safe to use in the way it has been in
6*0Sstevel@tonic-gatedso_dl.c. On the other hand, HPUX11 support dlfcn too and
7*0Sstevel@tonic-gateaccording to their man page, prefer developers to move to that.
8*0Sstevel@tonic-gateI'll leave Richard's changes there as I guess dso_dl is needed
9*0Sstevel@tonic-gatefor HPUX10.20.
10*0Sstevel@tonic-gate
11*0Sstevel@tonic-gateThere is now a callback scheme in place where filename conversion can
12*0Sstevel@tonic-gate(a) be turned off altogether through the use of the
13*0Sstevel@tonic-gate    DSO_FLAG_NO_NAME_TRANSLATION flag,
14*0Sstevel@tonic-gate(b) be handled by default using the default DSO_METHOD's converter
15*0Sstevel@tonic-gate(c) overriden per-DSO by setting the override callback
16*0Sstevel@tonic-gate(d) a mix of (b) and (c) - eg. implement an override callback that;
17*0Sstevel@tonic-gate    (i) checks if we're win32 (if(strstr(dso->meth->name, "win32")....)
18*0Sstevel@tonic-gate        and if so, convert "blah" into "blah32.dll" (the default is
19*0Sstevel@tonic-gate	otherwise to make it "blah.dll").
20*0Sstevel@tonic-gate    (ii) default to the normal behaviour - we're not on win32, eg.
21*0Sstevel@tonic-gate         finish with (return dso->meth->dso_name_converter(dso,NULL)).
