Static Linking (I Think) [message #259355]

I have a Qt GUI project which I'm building in Eclipse, and there are some
dll files which I want to wrap up in the stand-alone EXE (I believe this
is called static linking). Specifically, the MinGW and Qt .dll's which
allow the program to run. How do I enable project-specific static linking
in Eclipse for C++?

AFAIK, you cannot link statically to a DLL.
You would need the corresponding .lib file.

I suggest to post this also on eclipse.tools.cdt.
