Hi,

Thanks, that really helped. But now I have another problem. I'm trying to
cross-compile a library on linux for aix ( using cross gcc, ar,...) and it seems
it compiles ok. But when I try to link it on AIX system I got the message:

$ cc test.o thelib.a -o test
0706-721 ERROR: thelib.a is not an XCOFF object or archive

library is created as follows:
/usr/rs6000-ibm-aix3.2/bin/gcc -c thelib1.c
/usr/rs6000-ibm-aix3.2/bin/gcc -c thelib2.c
/usr/bin/aix3-ar rc thelib.a thelib1.o thelib2.o
/usr/bin/aix3-ranlib thelib.a

Thank you in advance.

Regards,
