title: Using Linux Static Library with JS-Ctypes
body: <p>I have created a Static Library in Ubuntu 12.04 and want to use the Library using JS-Ctypes.</p>
  
  <p>My JS code is :</p>
  
  <pre><code>try {  
      var libc = ctypes.open("/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libtestfn.a");  
      alert("JSCtype - after open1");
  } 
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Unfortunately the open fails and exception is thrown. Same code works for other System libraries like libc.so.6.</p>
  
  <p>Any pointer to solve this issue.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks in advance</p>
