The Library Manager

Table of Contents
Usage

vlib.exe <command> <lib_name> [<obj_name > [<obj_name>...]]


Description

The vlib library manager (a.k.a. librarian) can be used to either create new library from the specified set of object files, or to disintegrate existing library. In the latter case, vlib will create new folder named after the library being disintegrated, and put object files there; the files will be named according to the "file<ordinal>.o" pattern. Although (upon creation) the library could be given an arbitrary name, it should have the ".a" extension for the compiler driver to recognize it.

Known problems
