GP2X Sdl Static Linking Confusion

[fishybawb]

I did post before about some sound troubles I was having with SDL and sound, so instead of trusting my own code, I gave someone else's a go

NK's emu dynamically links with:

'sdl-config --cflags --libs' -lstd++ -static-libgcc (I stripped his font and SDL_image library out)

If I add -static to that, it'll all compile/link fine, but there's no sound when I run the executable! Why?

How is it opening the sound device?

I haven't got access to the source at the minute, but it's using "normal" SDL audio, not SDL_mixer.

Sorry, I hadn't picked that up. I have only ever used SDL_mixer.

I found statically linking a mass of libraries a nightmare. I finally got one single LDFLAGS line in a makefile that worked... now I am afraid to change it

I might be wrong, but wouldn't you need to add
"-lSDL_mixer -lvorbisfile -lvorbis -logg"
to the compile flags to get sound support?

Anways good luck with it all. Sorry I can't help more.

EDIT:

....it's using "normal" SDL audio, not SDL_mixer

Oops, I just saw this after I posted. I guess my flags won't help much then
