At least via libtool it's possible for libraries to specify their own dependencies, so that instead of having to specify "-lFoo -lEverything -lThat -lIt -lDepends -lOn" you can just say "-lFoo" and let the linker sort it out. I see hdf5_hl mentioned in contrib/ NetCDF and ExodusII build files; maybe they're doing something of that sort? > I guess this only makes it more puzzling to me why for the same > arguments to `exII::ex_create`, I get an error return code for MOOSE > and not for the libmesh example. Yeah, I have no ideas here. --- Roy _______________________________________________ Libmesh-devel mailing list Libmesh-devel@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libmesh-devel
