How can I link statically with one library and dynamically with another? I am building an Apache module which uses libtidy: http://tidy.sourceforge.net/
Because I frequently want to install this module on Mac OS X, which does not by default ship with a libtidy shared library, I include the libtidy source when I distribute my module. When I build my module, I also build libtidy, and statically link my module with it. However I do not want to statically link my module with Apache or libapr (Apache Portable Runtime) and I cannot figure out how to link statically with libtidy and dynamically with everything else. When I build my module, I call (Automake calls): libtool --mode=link ... -module /usr/lib/libapr-1.la $(top_srcdir)/tidy/src/libtidy.la ... - which links dynamically with libapr and libtidy. I tried calling instead: libtool --mode=link ... -module /usr/lib/libapr-1.la $(top_srcdir)/tidy/src/.libs/libtidy.a ... - which did successfully link dynamically with libapr and statically with libtidy, but libtool warned me that referencing .libs/libtidy.a was not portable. How can I link statically with libtidy and dynamically with libapr? Thanks and best wishes, Jack
