NAME
shlib - print shared library path environment
 
SYNOPSIS
edrc/lib/shlib
[
-n
]
 
AVAILABILITY
WA2L/edrc
 
DESCRIPTION
print the environment variables needed by the dynamic linker
ld(1)
to locate the shared libraries.
If a script need to set this environment variables (
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and
$SHLIB_PATH
), use
  eval `shlib`
instead of setting them by your own. This ensures, that
all scripts will continue to run, even when the directory
structure in WA2L/edrc changes.

ENVIRONMENT
- $LD_LIBRARY_PATH
 - 
path of additional shared libraries loaded by the

This variable will be expanded with the shared library
locations for a certain Os-Id distributed with WA2L/edrc
when executing the
shlib
command.
 - $SHLIB_PATH
 - 
this variable is expanded as the 
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
is done. This variable has basically the same function
as the
$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
and is mostly active on HPUX systems.
