[Swig-user] Static Dependencies

[Gheorghe P. <ghe...@gm...>]

Hi guys,

I have used the basic functionality of SWIG in the past and I am quite
happy with it. I am trying to wrap a library with a lot of specific
dependencies, some of which come all packed. I compiled the original
library with the -fPIC flag, but after that, when I try to build my
SWIG module, I get complaints about the dependencies. Is there
anything that can be done about that?

Thanks,
