Hello All,
In the continuing saga of my attempt to call BAPIs from the Solaris
platform, I've run into an error while following the instructions on the
OSS tech note 118227. It says:
"you can create your own shared library on DEC Digital UNIX, IBM-AIX,
SNI-SINIX and SUN-Solaris: you must only unpack the librfc.a with 'ar'
and then create a shared library with a platform-specific tool (ld or
cc)."
When I do this on the "librfc.o" file extracted from "librfc.a", I get
the following error:
$ ld -G librfc.o
ld: elf error: file librfc.o: unknown type, unable to process using elf
(3E) libraries
Can anyone shed any light on this?
Thanks in advance, Albert
