Works fine in linux. Files in test directory /test $ ls f.c f.cpp f.o f1.c f1.cpp libf.so libfun.so Compilation fails with the following message $ g++ -L. f1.cpp -lf /usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find -lf collect2: ld returned 1 exit status. f1.cpp #include using namespace std; void func(); int main() { func(); return 0; } func is implemented in libf.so I was wondering whether i missed some link options or packages. Suggestions appreciated.
