How > implicit linker script effects archive searching? If an archive on the command line appears before the linker script option, then any files implicitly read by the linker script will not cause objects to be pulled in from the archive. Conversely, if the linker script implicitly opens an archive file, then the archive will only be searched for objects which appear earlier on the command line. Ian
