I have a Visual Studio 2008 C++ project that outputs a static library and uses some functionality of the Boost Library. When I build the project in Debug configuration, the .lib file is 7.84 MB. When I build the project in Release configuration, the .lib file is 23.5 MB. !!!! The only Boost headers I include are: boost/function.hpp...
I have built a static version of qt and download a static version of glibc. Now I would like to link glibc statically to my qt application. I know about going into the .pro and adding the line LIBS += -L path/to/static_lib but I am wondering if these that is enough? Will it still link glibc statically even though the OS I am building...
I am trying to build a standalone qt application (built on ubuntu and deployed on Red Hat 5.3, both 64 bits) after building a qt application that is statically linked to the qt library I tried to run the program on red hat and got an error saying libc.so.6 was not found and that GLIBC_2.9 or GLIBC_2.10 is not installed and needed. I tr...
I have an old c++ project compiled with VC6. I need to statically link a new library to implement a new functionality. Unfortunately the new library define a symbol (i.e. _inflate) that is already defined in a previously linked static library. Of course I cannot get rid of either library, and of course I have no access to the library'...
I tried to compile Qt+Webkit statically with MS VS 2008 and this worked.

Hello, I have compiled several libraries with MingW/MSYS... the generated static libraries are always .a files. When I try to link the library with a MSVC project, Visual Studio throws 'unresolved external symbols' ... It means that the .a static library is incompatible with MS C++ Linker. I presume it has to be converted to a MSVC comp...
Environment: VS 2008 in Windows. Problem: A static library, say first.lib is not linked to, say second.lib, if first.lib is specified in .vsprops file and none of its functions is referenced in the second.lib. If, however, first.lib is removed from the .vsprops file and placed instead in the appropriate project options dialog(1), it is...
I am trying to create a static library in xcode and link to that static library from another program. So as a test i have created a BSD static C library project and just added the following code: //Test.h int testFunction(); //Test.cpp #include "Test.h" int testFunction() { return 12; } This compiles fine and create a .a file (li...
hi, I have a static C library (say mylib.a) and I was wondering if it's possible to find out what functions are implemented inside that file. I don't have a corresponding header file. what I need is like the equivalent of javap for Java. ...

Hi All, I have created a static library in XCode called TestLib. I then created a simple test project that will use this library. I dragged the TestLib xcode project into my test project (frameworks section - if it matters), and set TestLib as a direct dependency of the test project. I am having trouble importing header files from the ...
I have a static library (let's call it S) that uses a category (NSData+Base64 from MGTwitterEngine) and a C library (MiniZip wrapped by ZipArchive, a mm file). This static library is used in an iPhone 3.x project (let's call it A). To be able to use the MiniZip library I included its files in project A as well as the static library S. I...
I have created a shared library on linux x86. In creating it, I have statically linked in openssl. OpenSSL is only used internally however I see that the openssl symbols have been exported. This is causing problems for other libraries that need my library AND openssl because the wrong symbol can be loaded at runtime. Is there a way t...
Is there any way to find out the list of undefined symbols in windows static library compiled using VC6? I know the nm command will list all the symbols in linux and symbols with a tag of "U" can be identified as undefined. But, how to do it Windows? ...
I have a product that I ship with static libraries for use by third party integrators. I have seen compatibility problems with other versions of VS so I was wondering if there is any info about library compatibility from 08 to 10 and vice versa? This is with Standard Windows Libraries (no mfc) and not ATL. ...
Hi All, I have a bunch of projects that all could share a "common" static library of classes. What confuses me is if I make a static library out of these classes and link against it in my projects that I still need the headers of the classes in the static library in my main projects. What is the benefit of the static library then? H...
Hello. I've working with Visual Studio for a long time and now I'm working with XCode. On Visual Studio I can work with more than one project at the same time adding them to a solution (imagine a solutin with a windows application project and a library project). Now I have XCode and two projects: an iPhone application and a static lib...
hi guys i'm trying to make a static library from a class but when trying to use it i always get errors with undefined references on anything. the way i proceeded was creating the object file like g++ -c myClass.cpp -o myClass.o and then packing it with ar rcs myClass.lib myClass.o there is something i'm obviously missing generaly...
