hi all. i'm trying to build a motif app on X11R6, Motif1.2,
UIM/X2.9, Sybase4.9.
can someone suggest a strategy for ordering the libraries correctly so
that all symbols are resolved (i.e. X, then Motif, then Sybase, etc.,
etc.) libraries which i'm linking include the following:
Xm, Xt, X11, m, c, xpg, sybdb, ...

I don't know what all is in th Xm, Xt, etc libs....
You would have to find out what those libs depend on and put the
depended on libraries after the libs that need them.
Most linkers don't need this ordering, yet some do...<sigh>

Ok, I'm tired of this problem, when linking libraries on the cc command
line with the -l option, often there are unresolved externals.
Rearranging the order of the libraries on the command line can fix the
problem, but when there are lots of libraries (some static, some
dynamic, some third party libs and some custom reusable stuff), this can
be a very time consuming adventure. There _has_ to be a way to get the
linker to figure out how to get this stuff linked without screwing
around with library ordering... Any tips would be _very_ much
appreciated...
