The location of the static library should be recorded in the .la file for the
libtool library so that the final libtool link command (for the executable
that uses that .la file) knows that it needs to link the static dependency
into the executable.
You can force the static library (which will be made from non-PIC objects)
code to be linked into the shared library component of a libtool archive by
giving the fill path to the static lib on the libtool library link line.
This is not recommended though, since many platforms won;t support it at all,
and those that do will take a performance hit from the non-PIC objects in the
library. Because of that, when you do force such a linkage, libtool will
give a warning.
Cheers,
Gary.
