[ft] Error when trying to use Freetype library |

Hello,
I'm not sure that this is the proper place to ask but I do it anyway as
I desparately need some help. I'm trying to compile and test Freetype
on a embedded system, an ARM-processor running ThreadX but my problem
is on the compile-stage. My dev-box is running a cygwin-based shell and
after some problems I succeded (with the help of this great "story"
http://www.gamedev.net/community/forums/topic.asp?topic_id=277879 )
compiling freetype2 by first making a file named 'lib' in the freetype-
dir containing:
#!/bin/sh
builds/unix/libtool --mode=finish $@
After making that one I call 'sh configure' and compile with 'make'.
This gives me a nice libfreetype in my objs/.libs/ directory.
After that I follow this tutorial
http://freetype.sourceforge.net/freetype2/docs/tutorial/step1.html and
include the following in my code:
#include <ft2build.h>
#include FT_FREETYPE_H
...
FT_Library library;
FT_Error error;
...
error = FT_Init_FreeType( &library );
if ( error )
{
...
}
I also change the neccisary changes in the makefile and the resulting
call to gcc is (I sorted out some other includes to other libs that I
have succeded to include before adding freetype):
/usr/bin/arm-elf-gcc -o
image.elf ./objs/appconf_api.o ./objs/root.o -mbig-e
ndian -nostartfiles \
-
T ../../../../src/bsp/platforms/CPM4_R01/image.ld ../../../../lib/arm9/3
2b/gnu/bsp/CPM4_R01/reset.o ../../../../lib/arm9/32b/gnu/bsp/CPM4_R01/me
mcpy.o ../../../../lib/32b/gnu/crt0.o \
-Wl,--start-group ../../../freetype/objs/.libs/libfreetype.a -
L ../../../../lib/32b/gnu -lc -lgcc -lm -lstdc++ -Wl,--end-group \
-Wl,-Map,image.map
This returns the following error:
./objs/root.o(.text+0x14c): In function `applicationStart':
/src/apps/testfont/32b/../root.c:199: undefined reference to
`FT_Init_FreeType' make: *** [image.elf] Error 1
It looks like I havn't succeeded to include freetype properly, but the
path is right. It might also be some error with the #include
FT_FREETYPE_H not resulting in including the right files. I would
appreciate some help if anyone has any suggestions.
