</div>Why do you want to do this? [When shared libraries exist - the<br>
compiler prefers then - instead of static. So you should just stick<br>
with the compiler default behavior. And if build PETSc with<br>
--with-dynamic - then the .a files are useless anyway.]<br>
<br>
So the shared vs static usage should be chosen at PETSc configure step.<br>
[--with-shared=1/0, and do not use --with-dyanmic]<br>
<br>
<br>
So you should just use:<br>
<div><br>
ADDLIB := $(ADDLIB) -L$(PETSC_LIBDIR) -Wl,-rpath,$(PETSC_LIBDIR)<br>
</div>-lpetsccontrib -lpetscts -lpetscsnes -lpetscksp -lpetscdm<br>
-lpetscmat -lpetscvec -lpetsc<br>
