The following shared libraries are also elements of all systems, but were
not documented earlier in this manual:
libXimp.so libXv.so libaud.so
libcdrom.so libcmalib.so libcurses.so
libiconv.so libmxr.so libproplist.so
libsecurity.so libtli.so libxti.so
Starting with DIGITAL UNIX Version 3.0, the following shared libraries
are elements of all systems:
libDXterm.so libXIE.so libXi.so
These libraries are located in the /usr/shlib directory.
In addition to shared libraries, the DIGITAL UNIX system provides archive
libraries. Archive libraries are traditional ULTRIX libraries. When you link
your application with them, the image for library routines you call is
included in your application image. You can link DIGITAL UNIX
applications to either the new shared libraries or the traditional archive
libraries. To help you decide which libraries to use, this section describes
some advantages of using shared libraries and some restrictions on using
them.
For information on how to link your application with DIGITAL UNIX
shared libraries and how to create shared libraries, see Chapter 8.
6.6.1 Using Shared Libraries
The following list details the advantages of using shared libraries on
DIGITAL UNIX systems:
• Disk space savings
When multiple applications use a shared library, you save disk space. If
five applications use the same library image, the library image occurs
