3.1.6 Using ar to Create and Manage Libraries
</H2>

<P>
Support for ar format libraries was introduced in sdcc 2.9.0. Ar is
a standard archive managing utility on unices (Linux, Mac OS X, several
unix flavors) so it is not included in the sdcc package.
<BR>
<BR>
For Windows platform you can find ar utility in GNU binutils package
included in several projects: Cygwin at <TT><A NAME="tex2html24"
  HREF="http://www.cygwin.com/">http://www.cygwin.com/</A></TT>,
MinGW at <TT><A NAME="tex2html25"
  HREF="http://www.mingw.org/">http://www.mingw.org/</A></TT>.
<BR>
<BR>
Both the GNU and BSD ar format variants are supported by sdld linkers.
Ar doesn't natively understand the sdas object file format, so there
is a special version of ranlib distributed with sdcc, called asranlib,
which produces the ar symbol lookup table.
<BR>
<BR>
To create a library containing sdas object files, you should use
the following sequence:
<BR>
<P>
<I><B>ar -Sq &lt;library name&gt;.lib &lt;list of .rel files&gt;</B></I>

<P>
<I><B>asranlib &lt;library name&gt;.lib</B></I>
