How do I unload a shared library on HP-UX ? I am able to compile and
create the .sl file which a daemon process uses. I shut down the
deamon and restart but it is not picking up the new lib.

TIA

AIX is the only modern UNIX I know that has "sticky" shared
libraries. HP-UX does not do that.

Your problem is somewhere else (e.g. a different copy of the .sl
exists elsewhere, and your daemon picks it up instead of the one
you replaced). Or else, your replace command fails with EBUSY
because the daemon is still running and using it at the time you've
attempted to replace it.
