Hi: The link-editor's default library behavior is to link shared libraries. The command line option is -Bdynamic but you don't need to specify it. In order to link in an archive library, you need to use the -Bstatic option. These options work like a toggle switch. -Bstatic will affect all libraries that come after it on the command line until turned off with the -Bdynamic option.
eg: -Wl,--whole-archive -Bstatic -lapr-1 -laprutil-1 -Bdynamic -lexpat -Wl,--no-whole-archive On 09/15/09 09:23 AM, Yura Vishnevskiy wrote: > Dear All, > I'm new to OpenSolaris and trying to compile my program with gcc (gcc version > 3.4.3 (csl-sol210-3_4-20050802)).
