Installing a Protected Library
For Eldo to be able lo load a protected library, the IP access library (a .so file on Linux) must be
located in a directory named .../ixl and so on, depending on its binary origin (Linux and so on).
The parent of that directory must be specified in the standard LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable.
Example
Having received the foo.so library (for Linux 32-bit) from your provider IpProvider, you want
to put that library under the common shared folder /shared/common/thirdPartyLibs. You must
create a specific folder according to the platform of the foo.so library. In this example it is a
Linux 32-bit library so put the file under /shared/common/thirdPartyLibs/ixl.
The path to include in the LD_LIBRARY_PATH variable is /shared/common/thirdPartyLibs.
Eldo will automatically search under the ixl folder if it is run on the Linux 32-bit system.

library is not the expected one. Please contact your %s office.
The checksum made on the found library does not match the one specified in the netlist.
ERROR 1609: Unable to find the %s%s dynamic library provided by %s.\n+
Check first your LD_LIBRARY_PATH. It must contain the path to %s/%s%s.\n+
