Re: How to Link static

[Petar Koretic <petar.koretic@xxxxxxxxxx>]

Hi,

pass '-static' flag to the compiler.

Also, '-L' is to specify directory, while '-l' is to specify library so
'-L/usr/lib64/ -lssh' is what you would want.

'/usr/' and '/usr/local' directories are searched by default by
gcc/clang, so '-lssh -static' should get you going.

Regards,
Petar
