How do I add -static on a per lib basis?
I got libs such as:
xxx_LDADD += $(top_builddir)/ne/cp_hw_if/libcphwif.a
xxx_LDADD += $(top_builddir)/ne/nlib_lib_if/libnlib_lib_if.a
xxx_LDADD += ../../alib_tsi_if/libtsiif.la
xxx_LDADD += -lcsif
xxx_LDADD += -liciif
xxx_LDADD += -lteif
(I note that the -l should be changed to .la)
The two first libs should always be static even though there
my be a shared version too.
