There's been lots of (useful) talk on dynamic libraries, but there is
one issue I have personally been unable to understand from the docs
or from this list.
How is linking against a dynamic library that does not have the
canonical "lib" prefix any different than linking against one with
the proper name?
So far, I have collected the following info: the library is not
linked via the -l<someLibrary> argument, and the full path to the
library is passed in.
Does linking work the same even if the library is not specified as
part of a -l argument?
And if the dylib is not linked via the -l argument, does the "Library
Search Paths" build setting (-L) still have any effect?
Thanks
Gabe
