build_shlib build a shared library under LINUX. This works for Motif and XView.
!!! You need tools-2.x (currently x = 11) !!!

!! Modify the first four variables to set WXDIR GUI and DEST_DIR !!

Follow ths steps in the script. The idea behind is:
After adding -S_LINUX_DLL -B/usr/dll/jump in your makefile
the library lib/lib_wx... will be rebuild with this flag.
After constructing some additional information the library is rebuild AGAIN.
Then it's possible to create a lib*.so which goes to /usr/local/lib/

You see it takes the time of two complete lib rebuilds.

Since the libwx_XXX.a is overwritten you should save your 'original' lib.
Then you can put it back after build_shlib. 
It seems for profiling (-pg) you need the .a lib.


Good luck with it . . .
