Cyassl-2.4.2 missing libcyassl.a file

Question

I'm have built and installed Cyassl-2.4.2 on my unix machine to use with a project of mine; however, when I try to compile my c project, the compiler cannot find the libcyassl.a file. I have searched many times in the Cyassl.2.4.2 folder and am unable to find the file myself. Where is this file locate? Have I missed a step in bulding/installing Cyassl.2.4.2? Thanks!

Answer 1

I had successfully built and installed CyaSSL 2.4.2 here and this is what I got:

~/cyassl$ find . -iname "*.a"

./src/.libs/libcyassl.a

~/cyassl$ ls /usr/local/lib/

libcyassl.a libcyassl.la libcyassl.so libcyassl.so.3 libcyassl.so.3.0.3

The building process used was:

./autogen.sh

./configure

make

sudo make install

The installation prints out:

Libraries have been installed in: /usr/local/lib

If you ever happen to want to link against installed libraries in a given directory, LIBDIR, you must either use libtool, and specify the full pathname of the library, or use the -LLIBDIR' flag during linking and do at least one of the following: - add LIBDIR to theLD_LIBRARY_PATH' environment variable during execution - add LIBDIR to the LD_RUN_PATH' environment variable during linking - use the-Wl,-rpath -Wl,LIBDIR' linker flag - have your system administrator add LIBDIR to `/etc/ld.so.conf'

See any operating system documentation about shared libraries for more information, such as the ld(1) and ld.so(8) manual pages.
