EXTRA DSO LIBS

From MDC

EXTRA_DSO_LIBS is a convenience variable. You set it to a list of libraries to link against, and rules.mk automatically creates the appropriate linker flags (e.g. -lfoo on Linux or foo.lib on Windows). rules.mk does not use this variable directly; the makefile must set it and then include it in EXTRA_DSO_LDOPTS.

[edit] Set By

Tree makefiles set EXTRA_DSO_LIBS before including rules.mk.

[edit] Example

DEPTH           = ../../../..
topsrcdir       = @top_srcdir@
srcdir          = @srcdir@
VPATH           = @srcdir@

include $(DEPTH)/config/autoconf.mk

LIBRARY_NAME = example
FORCE_SHARED_LIB = 1

EXTRA_DSO_LIBS = \
  foo \
  bar \
  $(NULL)

include $(topsrcdir)/config/rules.mk

# rules.mk converts EXTRA_DSO_LIBS to -lfoo -lbar

EXTRA_DSO_LDOPTS = \
  $(EXTRA_DSO_LIBS) \
  $(XPCOM_GLUE_LDOPTS) \
  $(NSPR_LIBS) \
  $(NULL)
