Subject:Re: [jna-users] Unable to load a libraryActions...

When I do a nm /usr/lib/libgpvm3.so it says no symbol... But I guessed you meant libgpvm.a so it did it and got *lots* of undefined symbols, including pvm_pkbyte.

Most of them (including pvm_pkbyte) are functions defined in the pvm3 library.

Funny enough this library is not listed in the dependencies of libgpvm3 when I call ldd -v /usr/lib/libgpvm3.so :s

the 'ldd'-hint was probably a bad one, as 'ldd' won't really list all the dependencies. you should find out which library provides the function 'pvm_pkbyte()' and then make sure it gets loaded before the library that requires the function. you can dump the symbols of suspicious libraries with the 'nm'-command and grep for a line that contains 'pvm_pkbyte' but not the captial 'U' indicating that it is undefined there. then explicitly load that library before loading 'libgpvm' or whatever...

happy coding to all of you nikolas
