Is there any way we can override the hidden visibility by fvisibility=hidden flag

Qt Enthusiast

I have question

Filename : lib_mylib.h

int fun();
int fun1(void);
int fun2(void);
2) Filename: lib_mylib.c */

#include <stdio.h>
int fun() {
return 2;
}
int fun1(void) {
return 2;
}
int fun2(void) {
return 2;
}
3) File :my_lib_shared.c

#include "my_lib.h"
int foo(void) {
return fun() + 4;
}
4) File: my_lib_shared.h

int foo();
5) File driver.c

/* filename: driver.c */
#include "my_lib.h"
#include "my_lib_shared.h"
#include <stdio.h>
int main() {
int x = foo() ;
return 0;
}
If I execute following steps

1)gcc -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden -c my_lib.c -o lib_mylib.o
2)gcc -fPIC -fvisibility=hidden -shared -o libMyLibHidden.so lib_mylib.o
3)gcc -fPIC -c my_lib_shared.c -o my_lib_shared.o
4)gcc -shared -o libMyShared2.so my_lib_shared.o
5)gcc -L. -Wall -o test_hidden driver.c -lMyLibHidden -lMyShared2
he output of objdump is as

objdump -T libMyLibHidden.so

libMyLibHidden.so: file format elf64-x86-64

I did not any reference of functions of fun, fun1 and fun2 in the above objdump. Which is expected
and I get following error at final linking step

/tmp/ccMsEpFq.o: In function main': driver.c:(.text+0xe): undefined reference tofun' collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status

but In my actual code and shared libraries of libQtGui.so i can see in my Makefile -fvisibility=hidden is given as flag but still the symbols are available in my dynamic symbol table of libQtGui.so

=--------------------------------My question

is is there any flag in gcc linux or way where we can override the hidden visibilty and make the symbols avaiable in shared libraries

or there any flag in gcc linux where we can export all the symbols in the shared library

The flags of my Makefile while making shared library of libQtGui.so are

CFLAGS = -m64 -pipe -g -O2 -fvisibility=hidden -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -fPIC $(DEFINES) CXXFLAGS = -m64 -pipe -fpermissive -g -pthread -I/usr/include/glib-2.0 -I/usr/lib64/glib-2.0/include -O2 -fvisibility=hidden -fvisibility-inlines-hidden -Wall -W -D_REENTRANT -fPIC $(DEFINES) INCPATH = -I../../mkspecs/linux-g++-64 -I. -I../../include/QtCore -I../../include/QtCore -I../../include -I../../include/QtGui -I../3rdparty/libpng -I../3rdparty/zlib -I/usr/include/freetype2 -I../3rdparty/harfbuzz/src -Idialogs -I.moc/release-shared -I/usr/X11R6/include -I.uic/release-shared LINK = g++

LFLAGS = -m64 -Wl,-rpath/shared_libary_path -shared -Wl,-soname,libQtGui.so.4
