Loading so,dll libraries from program folder or specified folder.

[Guva]

Hi everyone, I made a separate topic. In one of the libraries (it seems to be uade), it required several more dll-so. Here's a solution that works!!! 

Add to the Lazarus project settings: Project → Project Options → Compiler Options → Custom Options.

Code: Text  [Select][+][-]

1. -k"-rpath=$ORIGIN"

For the specified folder
For example, for a nearby folder, "your_folder"

Code: Text  [Select][+][-]

1. -k"-rpath=$ORIGIN/your_folder"

Are you sure this works for the internal linker too?

@Guva: EXCELLENT!

Many thanks, it solves perfectly the problems when the libraries are not in "traditional" directories, like NetBSD, OpenBSD or DragonFlyBSD.

For example in NetBSD adding this parameters you dont need to create symlinks to /usr/lib/ or  /usr/local/lib/ :

Code: Pascal  [Select][+][-]

1. -k"-rpath=/usr/pkg/lib"
2. -k"-rpath=/usr/X11R7/lib"
