Hello Elias,

To link in a single object file may be tricky. It may indeed be easier to turn it into a lib file:

ar cru libfoo.a bar.o ranlib libfoo.a

the add

LIBS=foo LIBDIRS=DIR-WITH-FOO

and to you option list.

Directly adding object files is something that Erik just created a pull request for (for different reasons, though who knows it was AMReX related):

https://bitbucket.org/cactuscode/cactus/pull-requests/155

If you are in a thorn then there may be a way to fudge things as well, though when quickly trying this I have not been successful.

Yours, Roland

Hi,

I have an extra object file “.o” that was compiled externally, but needs to be linked in during the linking process.

Is there a standard way to include this within the build process?

Thank you, Elias
