Re: Linking to external static (!) library

[TOT]

Thank you, Martin.

I tried it in one step: 
mkoctfile -I/path_to_my_include -I/another_path
-L/path_to_library/libname1.a -L/path_to_library/libname2.a testoct.cc

It gave me the same problem like you have got.

Then I used:
mkoctfile -I/path_to_my_include -I/another_path -L/path_to_library -lname1
-lname2 testoct.cc

The result was the same.

You said that with -fPIC option compilation everything worked fine.

Is there any way to connect to the static library compiled without -fPIC
option?

I'm afraid that it's theoretically impossible because resulted oct file
should be dynamically linked to the octave - which means that it should be
assembled and linked with -shared option - which means that ALL dependences
should have PIC information - which means that they should be compiled with
-fPIC option.

Am I right? (please say me that I'm not and by recompiling octave I can get
it worked)

Maybe I can recompile octave and include my library into compilation
process?

Back to the future!
