//===-- DynamicLinker.cpp - Implement DynamicLinker interface -------------===//
//
// Lightweight interface to dynamic library linking and loading, and dynamic
// symbol lookup functionality, in whatever form the operating system
// provides it.
//
// Possible future extensions include support for the HPUX shl_load()
// interface, the Mac OS X NSLinkModule() interface, and the Windows
// LoadLibrary() interface.
//
// Note that we assume that if dlopen() is available, then dlsym() is too.
//
