 |
|
hllo all,
I am trying to staticly link in a lib so i can step into it using gdb, anyway using this gcc command works (non static)
| Code: |
gcc -ggdb -I/home/pbharris/progs/usb/libusb-0.1.12/ -I./ -lm -lc /home/pbharris/progs/usb/libusb-0.1.12/libs/libusb.so -o pwrdown pwr_down.c |
adding a -static gets me this:
| Quote: |
/usr/bin/ld: attempted static link of dynamic object `/home/pbharris/progs/usb/libusb-0.1.12/libs/libusb.so'
|
i removed the option in libusb makefile to have it be dynamic...
any ideas? i posted this at linuxquestions (thinking this was a scripting thread)...
thanks,
paul

| When you rebuilt libusb, you should have gotten a .a file as the output, not a .so - .so is a dynamic library, .a is a static lib. Look in the same directory for a libusb.a, and link to that.
