[M3devel] dynamic unload?

[Jay]

Does any care what the following do?
 
 
 
int main()
{
 while(1)
 {
 {
  void* = dlopen("libm3core.so");
  /* more stuff here */ 
  dlclose(x);
 }
 return 0;
}


int main()
{
 while(1)
 {
  void* x = dlopen("some-standalone-m3.so");
  /* more stuff here */ 
  dlclose(x);
 }
 return 0;
}
 
 
int main()
{
 while(1)
 {
  void* x = dlopen("some-not-standalone-m3.so");
  /* more stuff here */ 
  dlclose(x);
 }
 return 0;
}
 
 
 
(On Windows, these are called LoadLibrary and FreeLibrary.)
 
 
 
I haven't run them but I expect they all behave poorly, leaking, leaking thread locals, crashing in the garbage collector thread, etc.
 
 
 
A lot of code out there in the world is ok to unload, and I guess a lot is not.
 
 
 
I think the above code shouldn't leak or crash.
I'm pretty certain they do, probably crash, or at least leak.
