I have built a standalone executable which references my .so object.
both are in the same directory. when I try to run executable it gives me the following error:
ld.so.1: myExec: fatal: libMine.so:
open failed: No such file or directory
what am I doing wrong?
Unix systems don’t look in the current directory for .so files automatically.
You can get around this for development by setting
LD_LIBRARY_PATH, but during the normal installation they should be installed in the appropriate place on the system.See also why you shouldn’t make your users use
LD_LIBRARY_PATH
