cygwin:g++linker problems

[jayshankar nair <n_jayshankar at yahoo dot com>]

Hi,

I am getting compilation problems while linking the test shared libraries in cygwin1.7. gcc,g++ and bin-utils are installed in the system. Works fine in linux. 

Files in test directory
/test
$ ls
f.c  f.cpp  f.o  f1.c  f1.cpp  libf.so  libfun.so

Compilation fails with the following message

$ g++  -L.  f1.cpp -lf
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-cygwin/3.4.4/../../../../i686-pc-cygwin/bin/ld: cannot find
 -lf
collect2: ld returned 1 exit status.

f1.cpp
#include<iostream>
using namespace std;
void func();
int main()
{
func();
return 0;
}

func is implemented in libf.so


I was wondering whether i missed some link options or packages.

Suggestions appreciated.

Thanks,
Jay
