HPB_BOT badf load, (not loading)

[Weasel]

! RESOLVED !

Based on what Whistler posted, I tried the LD_PRELOAD environment variable again, but this time "exported" it. I put that option in my script that launches HLServer, right before the "hlds_run" command, like this:

cd /data/games/hlserver
export LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/libm.so
./hlds_run -secure -game dmc +port 28019 -sport 28119

Now HPB_Bot loads-up fine on my DMC server , and peacefully coexists with my other mods (AMX-Mod-X, etc.).

you'll get an error when compiling an application but not a static library (.a) or shared library (.so)

[The Storm]

Yeah for static library is clear why, there is no even a linker operation there, but for shared I don't see a reason for not doing it... However these questions perhaps are for the creators of GCC.

[Whistler]

that way it's easier to reference symbols from the main executable which linked the library or other shared libraries.

is it possible to recompile the .so that it will work without having to mess with anything else? If so, can someone post a link for that new compiled hpb bot .so file?
