I have code that works but requires an awful sequence of gtk libraries. For speed of development, if nothing else, I want to collapse that sequence into a single libary of mine, then just link to it.
Here's the make lines: OBJ3=Component.o Container.o Viewer.o Controller.o Style.o ECOMModelGrid.o glpp3: $(OBJ3) test2.o GLPPmain.o Makefile g++ $(OPT) $(DEBUG) $(OBJ3) GLPPmain.o test2.o -o glpp3 `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0` $(LIBS) -lftgl If I run pkg-config and capture the output, this is what it puts out: -Wl,--export-dynamic -lgtk-x11-2.0 -lgdk-x11-2.0 -latk-1.0 -lgdk_pixbuf-2.0 -lm -lpangoxft-1.0 -lpangox-1.0 -lpango-1.0 -lgobject-2.0 -lgmodule-2.0 -ldl -lglib-2.0 So I want to build a library that builds in all the links to these libraries, because the user code does none of this and therefore shouldn't need to see all this nonsense. My code needs to be built against the gtk+ code, not the applications built on top of it. So I try to build a library. libglpp.a: $(OBJ3) GLPPmain.o #g++ -shared $(OPT) $(DEBUG) $(OBJ3) GLPPmain.o -o glpp.so `pkg-config --libs gtk+-2.0` $(LIBS) -lftgl ar r libglpp.a $(OBJ3) GLPPmain.o The first line did not work, and I'm hoping someone can give me the right set of command line arguments. I want to resolve the links to all the libraries and build a library of my own. The ar line works, but all it does is combine the objects into a library which does nothing to resolve the dependencies. I would like the following to work: glpp3b: test2.o libglpp.a g++ $(OPT) $(DEBUG) test2.o libglpp.a -o glpp3b If libglpp.a has to be a .so, that's fine. Is this possible under Linux? thanks! _______________________________________________ gtk-app-devel-list mailing list gtk-app-devel-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-app-devel-list
