-
- Combining libraries is easy, you don't need the original .obj
- files to do it as long as you've the .LIB files. Here's how:
-
- 1) Stand alone libraries
-
- LIB new.lib, +old1.lib +old2.lib...., newlib.cat;
-
- NEWLIB.CAT is an optional textfile listing all the modules and
- routines in NEW.LIB, the combined library you are creating.
-
- 2) Quick Libraries
-
- LINK /QU old1.lib old2.lib..., new.qlb,, bqlb45.lib;
-
- Notice that the component libraries must be .LIB files although
- the combined library is a .QLB file. You can't link together two
- or more Quick Libraries with LINK.EXE.
-
- BQLB45.LIB is a support library supplied with QuickBASIC. If you
- have the PDS then you should use QBXQLB.LIB instead.
-
- Hope this does the trick.
