RE: static cross-compiling


Sure, there's a WITH_STATIC_LIB option on the cmake.

Try something like:
cmake -DWITH_EXAMPLES=OFF -DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF -DWITH_STATIC_LIB=ON -DOPENSSL_ROOT_DIR="<your path here>"

I tried to recursively (manually..) follow the errors and install the dev packages and include the libraries with the "-lname" parameter to my gcc line, but this is getting out of hand. It doesn't look like I'll ever reach an end:

$ gcc sshtest.c -lssh -lcrypto -lz -lgss -lshishi -ltasn1 -lidn -lgcrypt -o sshtest.x64 -static (output see attached file)

there must be some better easier way? I'm more of a java developer and there we have maven or other build systems to pull in requirements for building - can I use cmake or something else to walk those dependency paths for me instead of having to do this manually?

The symbol names (like BN_new) are from OpenSSL, which would indicate that you are not properly including OpenSSL libraries in your linking. Depending on your configuration there may be other libraries you also need to be linking in...

I will try to work on that next. Or have a look "embedded Linux distros like Buildroot, OpenEmbedded or Embedded Debian Project" to see if I find ready made arm binaries I can use?
