binding.gyp - can add a .lib to the libraries node

[Peter Tollnes Flem]

Hello! I have a .gyp file where I am trying to add a library that I use.

This is the file:

{

"targets": [

{

"target_name": "hello",

"sources": [ "hello.cc" ],

"include_dirs": [ "include" ],

"libraries": [ "lib/mylib.lib" ]

}

]

}

For some reason, this only throws "LNK1181: cannot open input file 'lib/mylib.lib'" when I run the node-gyp build command.

How do I add a library to the gyp file?

Try using the `module_root_dir` variable, to ensure an absolute path to your .lib file. See here for an example: https://github.com/yfinkelstein/node-zookeeper/blob/e317e12f40ef69a12010e2f28418d331b9d46d8d/binding.gyp#L27
