Using dlopen on libnglib.so crashes in std::map
Version v6.2.2404, from openSUSE Tumbleweed.
Here's a weird one.
Using dlopen on libnglib.so will cause a crash during the static initialization of global variable below in rw_medit.cpp:
static RegisterUserFormat reg_medit ("Medit Format", {".mesh"},
ReadMeditFormat,
WriteMeditFormat);
Here's the gdb stack trace:

It was generated from execution this simple program that is segfaulting in dlopen:
#include <dlfcn.h>
int main(int argc, char **argv) {
dlopen("/usr/lib64/netgen/libnglib.so", RTLD_NOW);
return 0;
}
I tried to understand what could cause it but failed.
I tried a minimal C++ shared lib mimicking what is done in writeuser.hpp/writeuser.cpp but it did not crash.
Quite puzling this one. If that helps, I attached the compilation log of netgen:
After investigation this crash is not specific to dlopen, but happen whenever libnglib.so is initialized when linked to any program. This combination of CFLAGS used by default on openSUSE TW cause the crash (compiler: gcc 14.2.1):
-O2 -U_FORTIFY_SOURCE -D_FORTIFY_SOURCE=3 -fstack-protector-strong -funwind-tables -fasynchronous-unwind-tables -fstack-clash-protection -flto=auto -g
After a few tests with various flags, I do not think it is not a single one, but a combination of these that I could not determine.
Classic initilization order problem. The RegisterUserFormat static variables are initialized before the required std::map for the formats is initialized (zero-initialization is insufficient).
I ran into the same problem today after building netgen on archlinux.
Any chance to get either #125 and/or #202 merged?
