Link against a ".la" file


  • Subject: Link against a ".la" file
  • From: Jonathan Taylor <email@hidden>

I've strayed into unix-y areas of OS X that I'm not familiar with, and I wonder if anyone can help. I'm trying to get Xcode to link against a ".la" file. I've installed GSL (Gnu Scientific Library) and built it according to the instructions (from the command line). This has created a file libgsl.la which I think is what I need to link my code against. Unfortunately Xcode doesn't recognise that file extension, and treats the file as a text file when I add it to my project.

Can anyone shed any light on exactly what a '.la' extension means, and how I can add it to the project? I'm vaguely aware of '.a' as an object code archive, but I've never come across this one. Doesn't seem to be anything in the list archives about this...

Thanks for any suggestions
Jonny
