Re^4: Real Static Modules

Ok, if I build an application that has a shared object that can be installed, that .so is made up of one or more .o files in some separate build directory. Is there a way to append the .o files to the Perl module .so, or does it all have to be done at once.

The reason this needs to be done is I do not want to hard-code an LD_RUN_PATH or a LD_LIBRARY_PATH to run the apps. There is also the problem of different versions of the libraries. I want only my versions to work with my distributed Perl, so I will not be installing any external shared libraries with my apps.

If I read ExtUtils::MakeMaker's documentation correctly, you may be able to add static objects to the OBJECT parameter of WriteMakefile() in your Makefile.PL `WriteMakefile( # stuff OBJECT => 'mylib.o anotherlib.o $(BASEEXT)$(OBJ_EXT)' # more stuff );` [download] "What should it profit a man, if he should win a flame war, yet lose his cool?"
