In this multi-language GPRBuild project I'm working on, I have some c++ library files (*.a) I need to link into my executable. Is there an gpr attribute to tell it what to link in or anyway to pass -l -L switches to the linker?

Or even better:

Project my_library is For externally_built use "true"; For library_dir use "/where/ever"; For library_name use "mylibname"; For source_dirs use (); -- no sources. For library_kind use "static"; -- if it is a static lib .a -- for library_kind use "dynamic"; -- if it is an so. End my_library; 

And in the application project. With "my_library.gpr";

Although my answer directly addresses Daniel’s question, yours is indeed a better overall solution to Daniel’s problem; there might, for example, be several application projects.

Within the main project file,

package Linker is for Default_Switches ("Ada") use ("-L/where/ever", "-lbar"); end Linker;
