Question

I have the following makefile

CXXFILES = pthreads.cpp 

CXXFLAGS = -O3 -o prog -rdynamic -D_GNU_SOURCE -L./libmine
LIBS = -lpthread -ldl

all:
    $(CXX) $(CXXFILES) $(LIBS) $(CXXFLAGS)

clean:
    rm -f prog *.o

I am trying to include the ./libmine library within CXXFLAGS, but it seems like it is not the right way to include a static library, because when I compile the program, I get many undefined references error. So what is actually the right way to include a static library in the makefile?

Answer 1

CXXFLAGS = -O3 -o prog -rdynamic -D_GNU_SOURCE -L./libmine
LIBS = libmine.a -lpthread
