What is the external library / addon in question? If the library is simple enough, the best way is to write a .gyp file for it and do it the "gyp way". I would highly encourage you to attempt to do that. An example of this is node-sqlite3's sqlite3.gyp file: https://github.com/developmentseed/node-sqlite3/blob/7d763404079c47319f870ea1d11636517f1f0821/deps/sqlite3/sqlite3.gyp#L40-68
However, sometimes that's not an option, maybe because the library's configuration is too complicated or whatever, and the only solution I've come up with is rather nasty. See node-ffi: https://github.com/rbranson/node-ffi/blob/master/binding.gyp#L45-66 On Mon, Aug 20, 2012 at 12:56 PM, rhasson <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm building a native-addon and I'm using an external dependency that when > compiles outputs an object file (.o).
