Hi,

I'm confused how your two step plan works together.

I'm confused, is the later part ( -Lpath -llibname separately) part of the
2nd step below. Or not? Why does it take a lot of time?

If the later part of step 1 above has not been done, than how does it help
to set "-Wl,-Bstatic"? Does it use the static version even when you specify
the library file with the full path?
