Hello!
I write C-headers for a library written in Pascal at time, to make it usable within C applications.
On Linux, the libtool-program (part of GNU autotools) generates the necessary files for C-compilers to link against the library (libxyz.la, libxyz.a, libxyz.pc)
How can I use libtool for Pascal libraries or is there an alternative way to get the libtool-comfort with Pascal?
Kind regards

I think you better ask that on a libtool mailing list. I have no idea what libtool requires from a compiler, how it determines what to put in those .la and .pc files, etc. There is no explicit libtool support in FPC, and I've never seen any patches that add it.

Okay, then I'll try to write the files by myself.
Has someone experience in using Pascal libraries with C on Linux? I will just write some code now and try if it works. Thanks!
