Loading functions dynamically from shared libaries?

dlopen(): LoadLibrary[Ex]()
dlsym(): GetProcAddress() (note: functions only)
dlerror(): not needed; GetProcAddress() only returns NULL on failure
dlclose(): FreeLibrary()
The _init() routine has a rather different counterpart in the function
tagged as the entry point. Normally, that would come from VC++, and
you would supply a DllMain() which gets called on: initial load, final
unload, thread creation, and thread destruction.

Felix.
