Hi, I haven't involved in C programming for quite a while. I want to confirm this question but couldn't find in comp.lang.c FAQ, and GCC Frequently Asked Questions. Anyway, here is the question:
How can I link a lib statically? Although the question is simple, please answer comprehensively. I.e., what is the command line format, what is required for the linking. Specifically, I want to link avcodeccvs & avformat statically while lz is linked dynamically. how can I do that? This is what I tried: $ g++ -g -Wall -o lnk-test lnk-test.C -lz -static -lavcodeccvs -lavformat /usr/bin/ld: cannot find -lavcodec collect2: ld returned 1 exit status Please note, this is ok: $ g++ -g -Wall -o lnk-test lnk-test.C -lavcodec -lavformat -lz Further, in the libavcodeccvs-dev package, only .so type of libs are provided: /usr/lib/libavcodec.so /usr/lib/libavformat.so please elaborate.
