Re: Adding library to libtarget.a

Right. My question should have been, "How do I use a library in a
package?". I've seen how you add source files to a package - with the
compile statement. I found no similar statement to add a library. I
only have the library, not the source files.
edit the ecos.ecc file. Look at option CYGBLD_GLOBAL_LDFLAGS. You
should be able to add the extra link parameters there.
I actually tried that. Problem here is the link order. It seems that the
items from CYGBLD_GLOBAL_LDFLAGS get linked last, but would have been
needed for libtarget.a, which gets linked earlier. That's why I tried to
get my lib into the package.
But that's what you want surely - if libtarget.a comes earlier, you need
your library to come later on the link line in order to satisfy the
dependencies. You may also need to add an additional -ltarget to satisfy
the dependencies of your library too.
Worst case, hack $ECOS_REPOSITORY/pkgconf/rules.mak
