Where do you get the idea to use

# ld -o libInitTest.so -shared -rpath . InitTest.o
# ld -o libxy.so -shared -rpath . xy.o

on Linux? It won't work on Linux. Please NEVER EVER use ld directly
for anything unless you know what you are doing. Please use

# gcc -o libInitTest.so -shared -rpath . InitTest.o
# gcc -o libxy.so -shared -rpath . xy.o

or

# g++ -o libInitTest.so -shared -rpath . InitTest.o
# g++ -o libxy.so -shared -rpath . xy.o
