debugging dynamic link/load code on Linux


Hi,

I am new to gdb mailing list.
I have a question and if this list is not appropriate,
please apologize.  I am hoping someone can shed some
light with helpful tips and pointers.

question: How do I set a breakpoint in a module/code
which is dynamically linked/loaded in Linux ?

I tried setting a breaking point (in gdb) after 
dlsym() but, gdb still complains of function not
found.
I did have it compiled with "-g" gcc option.

-- gdb output--

(gdb) b test_routine
Function "test_routine" not defined.
(gdb) l test_routine
Function "test_routine" not defined.

-----

Thanks,
