Hi All,

Bit of a newby question I'm afraid:

I'm using MF Cobol on Solaris and I'm trying to get one program to call
a function in another program but I keep getting linker errors. Ideally
the function I was calling would reside in a shareable library (.so) so
that multiple applications could access it.

Does anybody have a noddy example of how to write and build such a system?

Cheers,
Andy
