I am using the Perl Compiler with perl 5.003. One of the things the author suggests is to compile libperl.a as a shared library. He gives examples of Digital Unix and Linux, but neither of those work. I've looked in the archives, and did not find anything specific to the perl shared library. Has anyone done this? I saw some comments in -hackers archive about it, but the how-to was incomplete (for me). C programming is on my list of to-do's, but Java comes first. And shared libraries is mixed somewhere in there. If I don't get this answered, no problem. I can compile the perl with the applicable code built in. It makes the executable about 450K bigger, but I can live with that. Thanks for the help.
