Please guide me How can i minimize the size since I need only selected
algorithms.
Can one strip a .a the file...?
Mine goes from 3.3M down to 1.8M.
But I have no idea if it will still be working...
Properly stripping an .a file simply strips the debug information from
all the included .o files, making it harder to debug your program while
only providing the same savings as stripping the program after linking
it.
Improperly stripping an .a file also strips the symbols needed for
linking, which will be quite obvious as your program would no longer link.
Except for that incident on Solaris earlier this year, the size of .a
files is rarely a real problem.
Enjoy
