How to run a program relying on external functions?

[thealberto]

Hi all,
running the latest version and clang-5.0 I was able to obtain the .ll of pngpixel. I can successfully use it but at the moment I try to run the main function obviously I cannot because for example png_free is an external function. Is it possible to solve this problem maybe obtaining the ll for every external dependency and link them all together?

Thanks

Is png_free defined in a dynamic library (*.so/*.dll) somewhere? If so, you can link it with load_library_permanently (see docs).

I don't see any way to link in a static library/object files (see #311).
