linking with math.so

[imdognuts@yahoo.com]

hi,
My application that contains the .o's that were generated from using
"freeze" needs to import math. The point of using freeze was to make a
static application that can be shipped as a single entity (it contains
the dot o's from libpython2.4.a) , vs having to worry about external
python dependencies.

"importing math" as far as I can tell right now, invokes a shared
library (math.so). Now I have a shared library dependency that I dont
want. Is there a way to get the math functionality from a dot a or a
dot o, so I dont have to make my app dependent on a shared library?
cos, sin, and pi which is what I need do not live in the libpython2.4.a
- I did an nm on it.... I'm on linux.
thanks,
Nancy

You have to link statically against that part of libc.
