I have need to compile in multiple src library files with -c, for example,
g++ -c -o somefile.o somefile.cpp somelib.cpp someotherlib.cpp
g++ -c -o fileb.o fileb.cpp somelib.cpp someotherlib.cpp
it also does not allow for -m32, -m64, -mcpu, -march with -c. I need 64 and 32-bit libraries, and I have other cpu targets as well.
ar and ranlib do not work as intended - broken, so don't argue about those please as being the correct method. some things in the help are missing.
...and are the libraries really 32-bit?
