What is the correct way to specify linking with "libfoo.a" instead of "libfoo.dylib" if both libraries reside in the same directory?

A way I've found that works well is to specify a the full path to the .a as a custom linker flag. Basically, you want your linker command line to look like this (notice no `-l` on the libfoo.a):


% ld -o output <object files> /full/path/to/libfoo.a -l<dynamic library>

I've used this when I have a newer version of a system library that I want to statically link against.
