Hi.  Does anybody know if there are any special tricks to using shared
libraries with gcc/g++ (version 2.3.3)?

I'm using a sparc platform and successfully build shared libraries using
Sun C++ 2.1 by compiling with -PIC and putting all global variables into one
object which becomes libxx.sa.0.1 and the other objects into libxx.so.0.1.

...but when it comes to g++, the libraries build OK with -fPIC but when I am
linkingan application, I get a failure with unresolved symbols which are all
defined in libxx.sa.0.1.

gcc/g++ is using sun's linker.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
