Hi everyone,

I'm *very* new to Linux development, and my question topic is probably pretty obscure, so I thought this was the best place to ask.

I need to be able to programattically attach arbitrary binary data to an executable so that the program can access it. In Windows, I use the UpdateResource API call to add my new resource data.

Is there a similar API or technique under Linux? (I need functions for both attaching the resource to a program, and for retrieving the resource data from within the program.)

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

-John
