How to use .a or .so libraries in Eclipse? [message #693852]

Eclipse User

Hello!
I've got kni.a and kni.so libraries (in /usr/lib).
I added them to my Eclipse project, in this way: Project -> Properties -> C/C++ Project Paths -> Libraries -> "Add External Library".
They appeared in project's libraries Tree.
So! How can I invoke functions from libraries, doesnt matter wether from static or dynamic one.
Please, explain both!!! Thanks a lot!

1. Under Library Paths add the location of your libraries
2. Under Libraries add the name of your library (in most cases, it's the same as the name of the file, but not always)
