Q: AIX dynamic linked libs

I think the default extension on AIX is .a

so for dynamic lib "libabc.a", we can simply link against it by specifying "-labc"

but here I have a dylib which been built by some one else called "libxyz.so" on AIX. once I say "-lxyz" the linker is only looking for libxzy.a but not .so after that. What is the correct linker option to make it work?

simply rename libxzy.so to libxyz.a works, but I think this solution is NOT good at all.

Thanks in advance

NAME
aalib-config - script to get information about the installed version of aalib SYNOPSIS
aalib-config [--prefix[=DIR]] [--exec-prefix[=DIR]] [--version] [--libs] [--static-libs] [--cflags] DESCRIPTION
aalib-config is a tool that is used to configure to determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro- grams that use aalib. It is also used internally to the .m4 macros for GNU autoconf that are included with aalib. OPTIONS
aalib-config accepts the following options: --version Print the currently installed version of aalib on the standard output. --libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a aalib program. --static-libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a aalib program statically. --cflags Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a aalib program. --prefix=PREFIX If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation prefix that aalib was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. --exec-prefix=PREFIX If specified, use PREFIX instead of the installation exec prefix that aalib was built with when computing the output for the --cflags and --libs options. This option must be specified before any --libs or --cflags options. COPYRIGHT
