Hello:
I have a debate about whether it is possible to convert a dynamic
library (e.g. libm.so) into a static library (i.e. libm.a)
I would argue that this is impossible since the act of creating a shared
library strips out the necessary information required to create a static
library.
Am I correct?
Thanks,
Matthias
