Microware OS-9 v5.3 will have a nice new tool for automating the creation of UltraC Dynamic Shared Libraries (DSL) called dslgen. The dslgen tool along with an updated UltraC compiler, take an I-code library (e.g. mylib.il) as input, and generates a dsl module (e.g. mylibdsl) and a static stub library (e.g. mylibdsl.l). The tool handles all the hard stuff to dereference shared global data and function pointers.
For Microware OS-9 v5.3 we have updated OpenSSL, OpenSSH, and SNMP to use DSLs. As an example of the potential ROM savings, on PowerPC, DSLs reduced the combined size of all the SNMP utilities by over 79% and OpenSSH by 25% using a generic libcryptodsl. Additional savings could be realized if unused OpenSSL functions were excluded from the libcryptodsl.
