Bug Tracker Ticket #17256 "Make libshared symbols hidden "

[brunobastardi]

This was not meant for discussion.

It was meant to inform the user about problems that will occur if they update their nightlies the time Waddlesplash applys the “libshared” patch: #17256 (Make libshared symbols hidden) – Haiku before Beta 4!

So we now have several apps that access this code for example through libtracker. And now when we try to change something in libshared, it breaks these apps and they have to be recompiled.

That’s why we want to do this before R1, and before people start writing too many apps that will break with libshared changes.

EDIT: Resulting in lots of “missing symbol” or “symbol not found” errors.

This is what Pulkomandy said on “Trac”, Haikus-bugtracker, #17256 closed task (fixed)"!
