c++ - Can I wrap a shared library in a static library to contain its dependencies? -

-

i have been provided shared library file third party (call libfoo.so link application. not have source code libfoo.so, associated c++ headers , resulting binary provided third party. libfoo.so has few shared library dependencies, notably few boost libraries, such libboost_thread.so.1.48. other that, dependency list thin (essentially libstdc++.so.6).

here's catch: application, uses boost heavily, built against newer version, v1.55. therefore, if try link application against v1.55 libraries needs v1.48 libraries libfoo.so pulls in, i'm bound run problems duplicate symbols; that's non-starter. roll application v1.48 little work, i'd prevent 1 dependency holding me changing boost versions in future.

is there kind of intermediate product create sits between libfoo.so , application decouple boost dependencies each other? found number of similar questions, none find captured particular situation; it's not boost-specific per se, instead relates devising way link multiple abi-incompatible shared library versions single application.

one rough idea came (which i'm not sure possible): possible create wrapper library sits around libfoo.so , resolves of dependencies statically? if there way take libfoo.so , various shared libraries links , create static library, libfoowrapper.a, link application directly (with caveat i'm careful not leak boost stuff wrapper library's interface, guard against abi incompatibilities 2 versions).

is there way accomplish this? @ first, i'm operating on unix-like platforms using gcc (linux, macos); windows (using visual studio) in future.

i used pyinstaller create standalone exe file pyqt project. did not use single file option because exe created single file option takes long open. therefore, pyinstaller created dist folder contains bunch of files including program.exe file. create setup.exe file place contents of dist folder in program directory , create shortcut in start menu , on desktop. want super simple user. maybe setup.exe files when download program cnet. found inno-setup, looks promising. however, not know if there special considerations because program standalone program create python/pyqt program. thanks! have experience task? there program using task not know about? inno-setup or nsis easiest use. tell them files include , put them , create nice installer you. wrote short tutorial on experiences using innosetup might find helpful: http://www.blog.pythonlibrary.org/2008/08/27/packaging-wxpymail-for-distribution/ note tutorial based around wxpython app wrote, concepts same.
