Title: Static member functions in static libs
Post by: BruceGerdes on April 22, 2010, 07:01:53 pm

I'm trying to link a program with several static (.a) libraries, one of which contains a couple of classes with all static member functions.  For some reason, the linker can't find those static member functions, reporting them as unresolved external references.  But if I convert the libraries to dynamic libraries (.so), the problem vanishes.  Has anybody seen this one?  (running Ubuntu 9.10 a64).

Found it.  The libs have to be in the right sequence when they are defined in the link options.  Work's fine now.
