Re: [Flightgear-devel] SimGear as shared lib
Hello Karsten, Karsten Krispin wrote: just a small question: is it hard to include simgear as shared libs? No, it's not dificult at all. But you probably don't _want_ to, because changes in FlightGear sometimes relate to changes in SimGear so you have to rebuild SimGear anyway. I'd stick to static libs, especially since rebuilding SimGear doesn't take that long - compared to FlightGear, Martin. -- Unix _IS_ user friendly - it's just selective about who its friends are ! -- ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d

I tried to do that once and just lost interest before getting it working (didn't take long). Really though, rant I find it annoying to install a library that is statically linked by only one application into my lib directories. There's already way too much useless crapola and redundancy-because-everyone-wants-to-start-their-own-project-these-days in the typical linux distro's library directory(ies) these days./rant Which is why I have them installing in a non-default prefix location. Just a thought... :-) Best, Jim ___ Flightgear-devel mailing list Flightgear-devel@flightgear.org http://mail.flightgear.org/mailman/listinfo/flightgear-devel 2f585eeea02e2c79d7b1d8c4963bae2d
