Performer 2.0 and 2.1 are not binary compatible. You cannot use the same loader
DSO between Performer versions. pfdLoadFile() is rejecting the 2.0 loader DSO
because it is the wrong version. It uses the R14.2b loader that was shipped
with Performer 2.1 instead.
There are various loader binaries on our ftp site. You should be able to get
the 2.1 binaries from there. The URL is:
ftp://ftp.multigen.com/pub/Performer_Loader_21.tar.Z
I suggest making copies of the 2.0 DSO's as follows:
cd . # where ever you keep your 2.0 loaders
cp libpfflt_ogl.so /usr/local/MultiGen/lib/libpfflt_ogl.so.2
cp libpfflt_igl.so /usr/local/MultiGen/lib/libpfflt_igl.so.2
Next, install the 2.1 binaries and place copies in the same target directory
but with the suffix of ".3" instead of ".2". Finally set your PFLD_LIBRARY_PATH
to the target directory ... and both 2.0 and 2.1 applications will find these
loaders.
The sufixes ".2" and ".3" relate to the DSO versions that pfdLoadFile()
requires for the respective Performer versions. Naming the DSO's this way lets
you keep them all in one directory without conflicts.
Regards.
