need HP_UX 11i v1 equivalent to ldconfig

[David DiBiase]

new to hpux - trying to gmake some tools and some of them are looking for ldconfig.

[A. Clay Stephenson]

There is no direct equivalent in HP-UX nor is there any need for one. HP-UX uses the environment variables LD_LIBRARY_PATH and SHLIB_PATH to load shared objects. Executables can be modified using the chatr command. Man dld.sl, ldd, and chatr for details.

Hi David

In Linux ldconfig creates the necessary links to the most recent shared libraries found in the directories specified on the command line.
In Hp-UX if you put the directory to /etc/SHLIB_PATH file, which will create the necessary link for the recent shared libraries.
