Yes, this is awkward - so much so, that I patch the file_magic regexp as a matter of routine. Possibility: Libtool could contain a list of libraries known to be suitable for this form of linking.

linking dynamic lib with static one.
Hi! I build DLL with mingw/automake/autoconf/libtool. But this dll depends on external static lib, and libtool doesn't produce dll, but say that it will be built when I compile program with this library. But I use this dll in native windows app, coimpiled with VC without libtool... What should I do to link static lib into dll? -- Alexander Kogan Institute of Applied Physics Russian Academy of Sciences ___ Libtool mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/libtool
