The risk of that is not too low since I see at least one Unix ODBC implementation exports yylex at least.

http://bugs.winehq.org/show_bug.cgi?id=17474 --- Comment #1 from Alexandre Julliard <julliard(a)winehq.org> 2009-02-19 16:48:58 --- All Wine libraries are linked with -Bsymbolic, and opened without RTLD_GLOBAL, so I don't see how the symbols could possibly interfere with anything else. Do you have evidence of a real problem, or is this just a theoretical concern? -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

'Flameeyes' Pettenò <flameeyes(a)gmail.com> 2009-02-19 17:36:03 --- Mostly theorical, I'm trying to track down (and get addressed) all the positives, be them false or true, so that the situation can be then checked on new packages as a stopping issue. Would it be possible to get -fvisibility=hidden used in Wine? I guess it shouldn't be too complex to wire up beside for the configure check, since Win32 already forces explicit declaration of exported symbols. I haven't looked at (or actually used) Wine in a while, but if it would be just a matter of wiring up the buildsystem I can see to help. Sincerely I'd be interested in getting this addressed in Wine for the only reason that it's a popular and visible project, and getting such a fix pushed here would help the argument on other projects as well. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.

We don't declare exported symbols explicitly in Wine, so that would be quite a bit of work. And actually the right fix is to declare the private symbols hidden, like we do in a couple of places already.

I'm not sure Wine is a good example, the Wine libraries are not standard shared libraries, they are not meant to be linked against, and they use non-standard namespace rules. -- Configure bugmail: http://bugs.winehq.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email Do not reply to this email, post in Bugzilla using the above URL to reply. ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are watching all bug changes.
