Richard Levitte d9efa3616a For the operating systems where it matters, it is sometimes good to translate library names by only adding ".so" to them without prepending them with "lib". Add the flag DSO_FLAG_NAME_TRANSLATION_EXT_ONLY for that purpose.		2000-10-26 18:30:34 +00:00

NOTES
-----

I've checked out HPUX (well, version 11 at least) and shl_t is
a pointer type so it's safe to use in the way it has been in
dso_dl.c. On the other hand, HPUX11 support dlfcn too and
according to their man page, prefer developers to move to that.
I'll leave Richard's changes there as I guess dso_dl is needed
for HPUX10.20.

There is now a callback scheme in place where filename conversion can
(a) be turned off altogether through the use of the
    DSO_FLAG_NO_NAME_TRANSLATION flag,
(b) be handled by default using the default DSO_METHOD's converter
(c) overriden per-DSO by setting the override callback
(d) a mix of (b) and (c) - eg. implement an override callback that;
    (i) checks if we're win32 (if(strstr(dso->meth->name, "win32")....)
        and if so, convert "blah" into "blah32.dll" (the default is
	otherwise to make it "blah.dll").
    (ii) default to the normal behaviour - we're not on win32, eg.
         finish with (return dso->meth->dso_name_converter(dso,NULL)).
