nanogui: Thread: Linking the server to my application

If I set LINK_APP_INTO_SERVER = Y then do I get a library to link to my application ?
How is it called and where I found it ?
Thanks

I don't think a library is created, instead look at some of the
example Makefiles in src/demo, where applications are built
in a single file when this option is set.  Of course, we could
modify the system to build a library.

are static archives no longer built in lib ?

$ ls lib/
libmwdrivers.a  libmwengine.a   libmwfonts.a    libmwobjects.a  libnano-X.a

libnano-X.a

Yes, static archives are still built, but I was trying
to answer whether all the nano-X link-app-to-server libs
were placed in a single library...

Hi Franco,

when compiling nano-X you get a nano-X lib (libnano-X.a or .so)
which implements all the functions your application uses.
The

LINK_APP_INTO_SERVER = Y

Flag changes the behaviour of the nano-X functions. If the
LINK_APP_INTO_SERVER flag is set to N, all Gr... functions
try to connect to the nano-X server. If LINK_APP_INTO_SERVER is set to Y,
You dont need any server, since the functions in libnano-X.a / .so
are different.
