Linking dynamic a static libraries

[Eljay Love-Jensen]

Hi Roman,

With GCC, you should be able to do something like this:

gcc -o myexecutable \
-v \
*.c \
-Wl,-Bstatic \
-lfirst \
-lsecond \
-Wl,-Bdynamic \
-lthird

The compiler will link to libfirst.a and libsecond.a (both static), and 
libthird.so and the support libraries (dynamic).

The -v will display the magic-behind-the-curtains, and you'll see that the 
linker step is adding in (your mileage may vary) ...
crt0.o, crtbegin.o, and crtend.o
some compiler specific or system library paths
-lstdc++
-lgcc
-lcygwin
-luser32
-lkernel32
-ladvapi32
-lshell32
-lgcc

You'll also see where the -Bstatic and -Bdynamic are affecting library linkage.

HTH,
