Non-sense. Static libraries are as platform specific as any other binary code, after all it needs to call OS functions. > I'm not sure about the .lib files. MS's COFF files adopt the .lib extension, but it is a little bit strange these sizes below: > > `libippi.a`: > . original - 251 MB; > . striped - 192 MB. > > `libippi.lib`: > . original - 853 KB; > . striped - no strip needed, it is already small. Seems like the second one is merely an import library for the DLL instead of a real static library. And of course that is COFF as well. MSVC only supports COFF. Regards, Sven
