Re: [Dev-C++] Includes

[Per W. <pw...@ia...>]

If you want to link in own code without using cpp files, you should create
a library, i.e. incorporate one or more .o files into a libxx.a file. Then
just place the lib file into your normal library directory, and then add
the option -lxx to the project.
