> Static libs on every platform need to have this dependency info.
Oops, I didn't consider that. Sure.
In any case, I'm not talking about removing this info but simply
ignoring it when linking dynamic libs (which I guess is the situation
95% of the time on platforms with dynamic libs).
The algorithm should be something like (in linux):
- include_dynamic(libfoo):
read libfooname.so from libfoo.la and pass to gcc [but ignore
dependency_libs]
- include_static(libfoo):
as currently done in libtool since we need the deps.
Does this make any sense? One potential problem I can see is the case
when libfoo.so has been linked against a static lib itself, will this
break things?
When the time to generate the .la file comes, libtool would include the
dependencies just as it does now.
Comments?,
