tclLoadOSF.c   [plain text]


/* 
 * tclLoadOSF.c --
 *
 *	This procedure provides a version of the TclLoadFile that works
 *	under OSF/1 1.0/1.1/1.2 and related systems, utilizing the old OSF/1
 *	/sbin/loader and /usr/include/loader.h.  OSF/1 versions from 1.3 and
 *	on use ELF, rtld, and dlopen()[/usr/include/ldfcn.h].
 *
 *	This is useful for:
 *		OSF/1 1.0, 1.1, 1.2 (from OSF)
 *			includes: MK4 and AD1 (from OSF RI)
 *		OSF/1 1.3 (from OSF) using ROSE
 *		HP OSF/1 1.0 ("Acorn") using COFF
 *
 *	This is likely to be useful for:
 *		Paragon OSF/1 (from Intel) 
 *		HI-OSF/1 (from Hitachi) 
 *
 *	This is NOT to be used on:
 *		Digitial Alpha OSF/1 systems
 *		OSF/1 1.3 or later (from OSF) using ELF
 *			includes: MK6, MK7, AD2, AD3 (from OSF RI)
 *
 *	This approach to things was utter @&^#; thankfully,
 * 	OSF/1 eventually supported dlopen().
