Okay, I tried writing a wrapper script that sets LD_LIBRARY_PATH to a colon
seperated list of directories, where I have put the .so files, but this
doesn't seem to work. I tried it in an emulator without any of the libraries
it needs, and it complained about not being able to find the .so files.
Since this is getting a little off topic now, where should I go for further
help with this?
Thanks,
Aidan

Hello,
I'm trying to edit an existing Makefile to link to some libraries
statically,
and some dynamically (no, I'm not doing this because I'm a control
freak, it's
for an open source project). I looked up the -static option in the ld man
page, and it says: "You may use this option multiple times on the command
line: it affects library searching for -l options which follow it."
However if I put -static AFTER the -l options for the libraries I want
to link
to dynamically, and BEFORE the ones I want to link to statically, I get
some
linking errors, which is the same as what I get when I put -static
before ALL
of the -l options.
Anyone here able to give advice on this? I know this is a Linux USERS
list,
but I hope this is simple enough to not be TOO off topic.
Thanks,
Aidan
