dynamically register elements from a .so file

[Jacob S]

I am trying to load libgstx264.so using gst_plugin_load_file.

I copied libx264.so and libgstx264.so to the same directory where my
process is located.

when I call gst_plugin_load_file("./libgstx264.so", &error); I get this
error:
Could not load libgstx264 file: Opening module failed: Cannot load library:
soinfo_link_image(linker.cpp:1673): could not load library
"libgstpbutils-1.0.so.0" needed by "libgstx264.so"; caused by
load_library(linker.cpp:771): library "libgstpbutils-1.0.so.0" not found

Isnt libgstpbutils-1.0.so.0" supposed to be loaded already by the app ? how
do I load it manually ?

what am I doing wrong here ?
