title: Link a static library to a shared one during build?
body: <p>I have a problem building a shared library with GCC/Linux. Currently this shared library is created with GCC/libtool option "-shared" and everything is fine.</p>
  
  <p>Now there are two additional, static libraries (.a-files) that have to be added to this shared one since they provide some functionality that is required by the shared one. Adding these static libraries with option "-l" does not help, afterwards they are not part of the .so file.</p>
  
  <p>So how can I force GCC/libtool to really add the code of these static libraries to the shared library?</p>
  
  <p>Thanks!</p>
