I have some Linux code that uses ld and ld finds '.a' archive files

to specifically list them with -l.
Anyone shine some light on this ? Do I have to use '.la' ? Or what ?
We can't shed light on this without details. Please provide some
specific examples.
From what I am seeing (this is not a tested example)
Given 'libTest2.a' in '/usr/build/Debug/lib'
g++ -share -L/usr/build/Debug/lib test.o -o test.dll
This fails to find test2.a on Cygwin where it is found on Linux.
Where as the following works :-
g++ -share -L/usr/build/Debug/lib test.o -o test.dll -ltest2.a
