Answer / surendra gupta
n Unix, there is only one type of library file (.a) which
contains code from several object files (.o). During the
link step to create a shared object file (.so), the linker
may find that it doesn't know where an identifier is
defined.
In Windows, there are two types of library, a static library
and an import library (both called .lib). A static library
is like a Unix .a file; it contains code to be included as
necessary.
