Perhaps better solution is use of -export-symbols.
As I have said, the problem is not the lib itself. There is no problem
with the lib. The problem is with the binary : when I compile it,
there is no way to know if the library, that the binary uses, is a
static library or shared library (know == having a macro to
distinguish shared lib and static lib)
This is a good point. For GraphicsMagick we just had to deal with it
and provide an external way to know how the library was expected to
have been compiled.
This is fragile since it is possible/likely that both static and DLL
are available at the same time and compiler will choose one of them
according to its own rules, and especially if libtool is not used for
linking against that library.
