[HPADM] Overwrite running dynamic library

Hi all,

On SunOS, to overwrite a dynamic library, our C++ developers simply copy it
at the place of the old one:
$ cp dynlibv1.0.so dynlibv1.1.so
This works even if the dynamic library is running. Developers, then close
the application and restart it.

Doing this is apparently not possible with HP-UX if the dynamic library is
running:
$ cp dynlibv1.0.sl dynlibv1.1.sl
| Error: library dynlibv1.0.sl is in use

Is there a way to do it like on SunOS as the server is quite critical and I
cannot reboot it !

Thanks a lot for your help,
Rgds
