You can't. AR itself does not support static libraries that contain static libraries. What you have to do, is find all the object files for those libraries, and combine them into your final libcool.a. This requires special knowledge of where CMake has put the object files, there's no standard interface for it. Chicken does all of this with the PCRE libraries so that the object files don't have to be recompiled over and over again, and so that the user doesn't have to link against libpcre. This is called "faking a convenience library." See the Chicken build for details. http://www.call-with-current-continuation.org/ Cheers, Brandon Van Every _______________________________________________ CMake mailing list [email protected] http://www.cmake.org/mailman/listinfo/cmake
