Hi,
Is it possible to link a dynamic library to a wasm module?

bjorn3 (Jun 30 2022 at 16:19):

@Almog Baku Do you mean with the dynamic library also being a wasm module or using a native dynamic library from a wasm module?

I'm trying to achieve something like this https://github.com/pyodide/pyodide/blob/main/src/js/load-package.ts#L302

pyodide/load-package.ts at main · pyodide/pyodide

Pyodide is a Python distribution for the browser and Node.js based on WebAssembly - pyodide/load-package.ts at main · pyodide/pyodide

and trying to load these dynamic libs so the python will be able to use them

Wasm dylibs requires toolchain support. Emscripten supports it, but is only suitable for the web. Without using emscripten neither clang nor rustc support wasm dylibs.

hmm... what's the alternative?

Static linking?
