[erlang-questions] How to load a port driver which itself uses a shared library?

[Diptansu Das]

 I used the erl_ddll:format_error/1 and that said that one of the functions
(foo) was undefined. The function doo is actually in another .so file in
the same directory (lets call that foo.so). Weirdly, when I run ldd on my
driver.so it does not show any dependency on this foo.so . I am compiling
the driver by using:
 g++ -o simple_drv.so -i$ERL_TOP/erts/emulator/beam -fpic -shared
simple_drv.cpp
