ld.so.conf and .profile

[raf_BSD]

Hi

I'm sorry I'm new here forum FreeBSD and if I do something wrong then sorry

I have a similar problem in Ubuntu I use of such entry for files /etc/ld.so.conf

/home/user/<my library>/build/out

and for files .profile

export MY_LIB="$HOME/<my library>"

How to do it FreeBSD ?

Please help

It depends on the user's shell. For csh(1) use ~/.cshrc:

setenv MY_LIB ${HOME}/<my library>

For sh(1) and/or bash(1) use ~/.profile.

Hi SirDice,

sorry
did not help

 

[SirDice]

Can you tell us what you're trying to accomplish?

 

[raf_BSD]

it is a dynamic library
I wanted to test it in FreeBSD

As far as I know the MY_LIB variable is not used by the FreeBSD dynamic linker. The LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable on the other is probably what you want to use. From rtld(1):

The
     following search order is used to locate required shared objects:

           1.   DT_RPATH of the referencing object unless that object also
                contains a DT_RUNPATH tag
           2.   DT_RPATH of the program unless the referencing object contains
                a DT_RUNPATH tag
           3.   Path indicated by LD_LIBRARY_PATH environment variable
           4.   DT_RUNPATH of the referencing object
           5.   Hints file produced by the ldconfig(8) utility
           6.   The /lib and /usr/lib directories, unless the referencing
                object was linked using the “-z nodefaultlib” option

export MY_LIB="$HOME/<my library>"

What does that do in Ubuntu? Is MY_LIB a special environment variable?

for files /etc/ld.so.conf
/home/user/<my library>/build/out

I'm guessing here, but create a file /usr/local/libdata/ldconfig/mylib and add

/home/user/<my library>/build/out

then run service ldconfig restart

 

[SirDice]

Probably the best way to test it is to launch your application like this:
env LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${HOME}/mylibs:${LD_LIBRARY_PATH} /path/to/myapp

This should work regardless of the shell you're using.
