Shantonu I speculate that the problem is, that in i386 the symbol starts with a "." instead of an underscore and that the possibly naive dlsym code gets confused by this. So, yeah, what Shantonu said. Peter _______________________________________________ Do not post admin requests to the list. They will be ignored.

For example to find the address of function foo(), you would pass "foo" as the symbol name. This is unlike the older dyld APIs which required a leading underscore. If you looking up a C++ symbol, you need to use the mangled C++ symbol name. This email sent to site_archiver@lists.apple.com
