Hi! IDL GURUS

Could some one give me an example for makeing sharable object for IDL call_external
with SOLARIS OS.

We have only gcc/g++ compiler. The IDL document does not mention about gcc.

For what it's worth, once upon a time I looked into doing this but found that it would take
some modifications of the gcc code to make it work. If I remember correctly, the gcc docs
said that the gcc compiler does not do Position Independent Code out of the box .

But IDL dynamic_link directory does not mention about gcc/g++ type compilers.
It has examples with cc compilers.
