I want to use it but we only have the libtermcap.a
I tried to create the .so file with:
ar -x libtermcap.a
qcc -Vgcc_ntox86 -shared -o libtermcap.so tcapvar.o tgetent.o tgoto.o
tputs.o

but I get a sissegv while loading the library.

Could you tell me what’s wrong or where I can get it?

Thanks,
Alain.

All the termcap functions are in ncurses, of which there is a shared
version at http://staff.qnx.com/~cburgess/freestuff

You need compile your sources with -shared and -fPIC flags …
