8 * This section is added as an aid to users and DynaLoader developers, in
9 * order to clarify the process of dynamic linking under VMS.
10 * dl_vms.xs uses the supported VMS dynamic linking call, which allows
11 * a running program to map an arbitrary file of executable code and call
12 * routines within that file. This is done via the VMS RTL routine
13 * lib$find_image_symbol, whose calling sequence is as follows:
14 * status = lib$find_image_symbol(imgname,symname,symval,defspec);
16 * status = a standard VMS status value (unsigned long int)
17 * imgname = a fixed-length string descriptor, passed by
18 * reference, containing the NAME ONLY of the image
19 * file to be mapped. An attempt will be made to
20 * translate this string as a logical name, so it may
21 * not contain any characters which are not allowed in
22 * logical names. If no translation is found, imgname
23 * is used directly as the name of the image file.
24 * symname = a fixed-length string descriptor, passed by
25 * reference, containing the name of the routine
27 * symval = an unsigned long int, passed by reference, into
28 * which is written the entry point address of the
29 * routine whose name is specified in symname.
30 * defspec = a fixed-length string descriptor, passed by
31 * reference, containing a default file specification
32 * whichis used to fill in any missing parts of the
33 * image file specification after the imgname argument
35 * In order to accommodate the handling of the imgname argument, the routine
36 * dl_expandspec() is provided for use by perl code (e.g. dl_findfile)
37 * which wants to see what image file lib$find_image_symbol would use if
38 * it were passed a given file specification. The file specification passed
39 * to dl_expandspec() and dl_load_file() can be partial or complete, and can
40 * use VMS or Unix syntax; these routines perform the necessary conversions.
41 * In general, writers of perl extensions need only conform to the
42 * procedures set out in the DynaLoader documentation, and let the details
43 * be taken care of by the routines here and in DynaLoader.pm. If anyone
44 * comes across any incompatibilities, please let me know. Thanks.
