[ODE] { Newbie, Need a bit help }

[HanSolo]

Hello.

First of all, my english isn't good so i must do an effort to understan 
manuals, tutorials etc.

Perhaps my university's teachers never showed us, or may be a bit, about 
the procces of compilation and link.

I didn't know that "ld" was a linker. When i made C programs, our 
teachers told us use the Makefile.

I can read some manuals in my natural language and now i know more, but 
the static library "libode.a" i can't link with the DJGPP or DEVC++ 
(both in Windows), i've tried compile the *.o and i made my own 
libode(more than 1 MB) with "ar rcs" but when "ld" links to my 
"libode.a" it tell me:

"c:/djgpp/lib/libode.a: could not read symbols: Archive has no index; 
run ranlib to add one"

I tried too with my linux "libode" in Windows but nothing. It tell me my 
first problem (read first post).

At last i will developer my project in my Linux i think. I didn't have 
any problem installing the Debian Packages of ODE.

==> don't worry perhaps some readers may be can make the best operating 
system in 1 day ...
