Hard to tell, I'll give some shots:
- This maybe an issue caused by a problem managing the data sections (.bss or .state). You will need to debug what is happening with your project during the cr_plugin_load_internal (try to put a breakpoint on the returns returning false). I believe it should be failing here but it may very well be another thing.
Also, you can check what changes in your .so after a recompilation by checking its sections (readelf or objdump), this may give some extra information (mostly if offset/address changes).

You say logs tell the library was loaded, so what exactly does not work on your project? Do you see the new .so renamed being used in lsof? (If you lib is foo.so, the loaded object will be like foo0.so, foo1.so, foo2.so, ...). So if you say it works on windows but not on linux, maybe the project output path/name may be the issue.

If you're able to debug and think the old library is loaded, can you validate within GDB the loaded shared objects to make sure the latest version is loaded (info sharedlibrary) ? Also, are you sure a rollback didn't happened trying to load the most recent version of the .so?

ufff..... found the issue. your advices did help in the end, I've checked even down to the assembly that the libraries had changed code and that the libraries were reloaded, but the "info sharedlibrary" gave me the hint that I loaded the library in a proper way, but the build system I'm using had a reference to the library as well with the result that I had the original shared library loaded IN ADDITION to the shared libraries loaded by your implementation. and it seems that the reference placed by the linker has a higher priority than the loaded one.
many thanks for the help!!

Glad to hear you found it.
Is there anything that we should put in the readme about this situation? I mean, if it is something that someone else may find in the future?

I also thought about that, the only thing comes in my mind is to write a sentence to NOT link to the dynamically loaded shared library via the build system. the other things like "info sharedlibrary" and "lsof -p " might be useful in a "deepdive debug info" section, but most people should not need that.

I think it is valid. I'll write something in the FAQ section, thank you for reporting this!
