In the GCC manual section 3, it’s said that:
You can mix options and other arguments. For the most part, the
order you use doesn’t matter. Order does matter when you use several
options of the same kind; for example, if you specify -L more than once, the directories are searched in the order specified.
Nothing is mentioned that it DOSE matter under windows! So if u get the same problem such as “library not found” or “some functions not implemented” under window, try to check the order of your compiling options. Anyway, try to learn and use automake.
