Hello, I'm wondering if it is generally a good idea to link a library to another existing library or to tell the linker explicitly what to link -l.. -l... Does anyone have good cases to do that or leave it? Andreas

What's your question about the C language? Did you know there are newsgroups that discuss Gnu tools and GCC?

I think you missed his point. The only thing C language has to say about linking is that it is a phase of translation. Questions about linking are best discussed in a newsgroup devoted to your compiler.
