Problems using AR utility

Problems using AR utility

[Ignasi Villagrasa]

I'm new using Cygwin and have a problem using AR.EXE utility.

I have a makefile that builds a program without problems. When I try to 
add some of the .obj files to a .lib file, instead of using the .obj's 
in the makefile, I get several undefined symbols. But these symbols are 
into the library (I can see them running nm) and link fine when I attach 
the .obj's directly from makefile.

Could anyone give me a hint ?

Thanks in advance. Ignasi Villagrasa.

.obj? .lib?  Are you trying to us ar with VC?  I'm not sure if that's
supposed to work...

No. I'm not using VC. I'm using Cygwin. But I mantain .obj and .lib 
names because I'm migrating these programs from Watcom to Cygwin, and 
the original names were .obj and .lib. Aditionally, I want to migrate 
them to Linux, too. So I want to distinguish the program version using 
different extensions, .obj and .lib for WNT and .o and .a for Linux.
