Re: glib gmodule - help.

 GOSH... Can I at least look at the source code before asking questions ???

 My bad..

 I looked at the source code and saw that if "lib" is part of the name passed
in, it assumes your are passing the name with an ".so" appended. If "lib" is
not
part of the name, it assumes you are using the logical module name and prepends
"lib" and apends ".so" to the name.

 Again, my bad.

 Thank anyway.
