No it isn’t possible, because a static library is not the same as a “bundle”. A bundle is a directory that may contain all manner of files including resource files (xib), executable files and static libraries. It exists on the filesystem as a group of individual files. A static library is a single file that … Read more
The problem is coming from the linker, ld, rather than gcc (hence the exit status message). In general ld requires objects and libraries to be specified in the order user supplier, where user is an object that uses a library function and supplier is the object which provides it. When your test.c is compiled to … Read more
A .LIB file is a collection of .OBJ files concatenated together with an index. There should be no difference in how the linker treats either.
Reading the manual page (for ar) is a good start: c Create the archive. The specified archive is always created if it did not exist, when you request an update. But a warning is issued unless you specify in advance that you expect to create it, by using this modifier. r Insert the files member… … Read more
What is a dynamic language? Whether or not a language is dynamic typically refers to the type of binding the compiler does: static or late binding. Static binding simply means that the method (or method hierarchy for virtual methods) is bound at compile time. There may be a virtual dispatch involved at runtime but the … Read more
You do not have to use PIC code in shared objects (as you have discovered you can use the -mimpure-text option to allow that). That said, non-PIC code in shared objects are more heavyweight. With PIC code, the text pages in memory are just direct memory mappings of the text pages on disk. This means … Read more
An update to Alex’s answer: In my case it was a React-Native project after adding a Swift Pods library. Maybe just the step 2 can work: Adding a new Swift file and a Brigde header: 1) File -> New -> File 2) Select Swift File 3) Confirm Create Bridging Header Go to Build Settings and … Read more
I’ve managed to solve my problem by using the following: #Dynamic/Shared Libs … #Static start set_target_properties(icarus PROPERTIES LINK_SEARCH_START_STATIC 1) set_target_properties(icarus PROPERTIES LINK_SEARCH_END_STATIC 1) set(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES “.a”) #Static Libs … #Set Linker flags set(CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS “-static-libgcc -static-libstdc++”) This works without passing a -static which creates other big issues, and can essentially mix static and dynamic libraries. As long … Read more
