Basics on linking static library

Hi everyone, i am a newbie to Qnx and i need to find out the steps to make use of functions in a static library (*.a file). I need to use the function in the library but am unsure of the linking process and placing of the library in what location as have being a window user in the past and now switching to QNX :slight_smile:

Any help be greatly appreciated Thank!!

Oh i am currently using the neutrino 6.2.1 system and be running the program in the builder…

.a library are meant to be linked with object files. So it unrelated to build file but to the linker phase. Just specify the library on the link command line (-l foo))

Hi , i still am quite confused regarding the linking. I have try to find the linker command in the builder but cant really find it. Is it the same techniques as per visual c++ where we normally direct the builder to the library or do i need to work in the terminal to specify the link? Is there any place i can find some examples or steps in linking the static library. Have gone through quite a few webpages but cant find any examples on this part.

thanks in advance
