Statically built bond - is it possible?

[jm-32]

Is it possible to build bond in all-in-one manner (bondfrontend), without need
for loading bond_uigtk.so shared library? With something like this one can run
bond on kde system without any gnome library.

I'm new to bond and to scons as well. It would require some tweaking in
SConstruct files under src and/or bond source rootdir, I suppose. I have no
clue how to do it..

Did anyone here tried to build bond statically?

You'll still need the gtk and associated libraries, so I'm not sure if
statically linking uigtk is enough. bond_uigtk is designed to be loaded
dynamically at run time (not link time). bond_uigtk can be statically
linked directly to bondfrontend with a bit of work. You could statically
link bond_uigtk, and all the gtk libraries.

ui_plugin.c would need slight modification to not load the modules (see
plugin_create()), and the export of functions should continue to work
fine with statically linked functions. Though I had a bug with
dynamically calling statically linked functions last year on some
systems though its hard to reproduce.

Ideally you could copy the uigtk directory, create a uiqt directory and
replace all the calls with libqt calls and that would be a cleaner
better long term solution.

I've built varies libraries in bond statically before, but not uigtk
yet. I first of all do experimenting by doing the linking manually with
gcc. Theres no simple option I know of with scons for library types.

use StaticLibrary instead of SharedLibrary, but I can't promise good results.
