AFAIK in order to build a static library, first you have to separately
compile echo  source file to object (.o) files, using the -c option of
gcc, and after that create a library with the ar command:

E.g if you want to create libfoo.a from foo1.c foo2.c

gcc -c foo1.c
gcc-c foo2.c

ar -ru libfoo.a foo1.o foo2.o ...

ar comes as component of binutils.
