static-libraries

I have a static library on my Mac and curious to know if the lib was built for armV7s architecture or not? Is any command/tools available to show the supported architectures in this library? Thank you, Kamran You may use otool for getting that information. From otool's manpage -L Display the names and version numbers of the shared libraries that the object file uses. As well as the shared library ID if the file is a shared library. Example > otool -L libRaptureXML_universal.a Archive : libRaptureXML_universal.a (architecture armv7) libRaptureXML_universal.a(RXMLElement.o) (architecture armv7):

I've a linux application that links against a static library (.a) and that library uses the dlopen function to load dynamic libraries (.so) If I compile the static library as dynamic and link it to the application, the dlopen it will work as expected, but if I use it as described above it won't. Can't a static library uses the dlopen function to load shared libraries? Thanks. There should be no problem with what you're trying to do: app.c: #include "staticlib.h" #include "stdio.h" int main() { printf("and the magic number is: %d\n",doSomethingDynamicish()); return 0; } staticlib.h: #ifndef _

I have a static library Xcode 4 project that includes a home-brewed rendering engine, and I re-use this engine in multiple apps. This engine uses OpenGL ES 2.0, and by extension, shaders. As shaders got more complicated, I moved away from storing them as NSStrings in a source file, and now store them as standalone text files with the .vert and .frag extensions. This works fine for apps that include the rendering engine in their own source; the shaders are simply added to the app's "Copy Bundle Resources" build phase, and loaded at runtime into NSStrings and compiled, linked, etc. This strategy

When I create a project in vs2005. I can also create Win32->Win32Project. I can choose "console application" or "dll" or "static library" if I created a static library project. How can I convert it to dll project. I found in setting panel of the created project. General->Configuration Type, I can switch Static Library(.lib) to DLL However, after this setting. I does get a dll. but I do not have a lib with it. and I can not use it in other project. How to convert a static library project into a dll project in VS2005 many thanks! The way I've done this, and this may not be the "best" way, was to

I have a built C static library (the Antlr 3 C library). It is installed properly and works (i.e., I can run gcc -o parser lexer.c parser.c -lantlr3c just fine). In Xcode, however, I get an error. I've added -lantlr3c in the "other linker flags" build setting. ld: library not found for -lantlr3c Command /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/llvm-gcc-4.2 failed with exit code 1 Several other questions I've found here ( 1 , 2 , 3 , 4 ) generally have answers targeting Xcode 3. I'm using Xcode 4.1, in an iOS static library project. I'm currently building the unit test

I have a static library which I am trying to use inside my R package. This is only for internal use. The libq.a for now is just within ./src folder. I was trying to add the following to src/Makevars: PKG_LIBS="-l/path/to/lib/libq.a" Where /path/to/lib is an absolute path to the libq.a location (for testing purposes only). But that doesn't seem to help. Do I have to do anything else in order to load that static library? That should work -- make sure you see the library used on the final link statement when the package is built. Mind you, though, that -L is for the patch and -lq should be all.
