Sorry, I haven't seen my mail get to the list. So here goes it again.
----- Forwarded message from Axel Siebenwirth <axel@hh59.org> -----
Hi,
I have some stupid questions.
What makes the difference between .o and .so files? What is their use? Is it
just a naming convention?
When I want to link libraries to a program I am compiling, of what format do
the libraries have to be?
I have found out that .a files are archives created with ar. What is that
for?
Many thanks and my best regards,
Axel Siebenwirth
