openldap shared libs

[Bill Edison <edison@newpaltz.edu>]

Hi-

  I'm new to lots of things here and hope I'm not going off topic. 
We're authenticating to a local
ldap server as part of a credit card billing routine, which is written 
using microfocus cobol and
Oracle 9.2 (just an fyi). . I installed openldap-2.2.13 on our AIX 5.2 
box to write a client api,
which authenticates fine as a stand-alone. However, when I changed the 
standalone into a
function call, I got an error :

ld: 0711-317 ERROR: Undefined symbol: .main
ld: 0711-345 Use the -bloadmap or -bnoquiet option to obtain more 
information.
collect2: ld returned 8 exit status
/
My compile routine  is:

00001 export OL=/opt/ol
00002 export OLLIB=$OL/lib
00003 export OLINC=$OL/include
00004 export OLCLI=$OL/clients
00005 export PATH=$OL/include:$OL/libraries:$PATH
00006 export 
LIBPATH=$OLLIB:$OLLIB/libldap:$OLLIB/liblber:$OLLIB/libldap_r:/usr/lib
00007 export 
LIBPATH=$LIBPATH:$OLLIB/liblunicode:$OLLIB/libutil:$OLLIB/liblrewri
00008 export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LIBPATH:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:$PATH:/usr/lib
00009 gcc -lldap -L$OLLIB -I$OLINC -I$OL -llber -o ldapauth.so ldapauth.c

Apologies for the redundant env entries .   Which library am I missing??


thanks,
Bill Edison
