Re: Where to put static libraries?

I'm fairly new at writing software, so forgive the "basic-ness" of this, but I selected 'Add File...' from the project menu and added the library to my project and I still get an error stating that libmysql.a could not be found.

How do I specify the location of my library in my #include < > statement? Actually, I'm not even sure where my include should go. I just put it in the header file for my first block of code...

Thanks for any tutoring you can offer.

Regards,

Marty Ray

I am trying to write an application that allows me to access a mysql database. They have a static library "libmysqlclient.a" that I need to link to, but I can't figure out how to do that.

Put it anywhere you want and add it like a framework or resource to the project.


To test wether you can distribute your app, build the app, move the lib aside and run the app. Since it's a static lib, this should work.

In opposite, dynamic libs need to be embedded into the app since they are needed at runtime.
