    Order of Linking Libraries

    Hi All,

    I have more than one libraries to link and generate an executable.

    But, whenever i try to link the library by
    g++ -L../../ main.cpp -lxp.a -lap.a ...

    I get lot of undefined references to functions. All I want know is whether there is any order of linking so that we should maintain that order when linking libraries.

    Can any one please help me to resolve this problem

    Thanks & Regards
    Vikram

    Should the code you are compiling (main.cpp) not go at the end of the command so that it can pick up the functions in the libraries?
