Adding Static Libraries to Arduino Projects

Hi,
I am trying to write an Arduino program that uses IMU9250. The sensor firmware comes with a static library (.a) that needs to be included in my project. I am using Visual Studio Community version but I can also use Atmel Studio 7.0. I need help including this static library so I can use its functions in my program. Can you please help?

Hi,

It there is a real arduino library version of the IMU9250 then it's best to use that and install it using the standard library install tools/locations.

I expect you can also add the library using the "Compiler>Extra flags" in the visual micro project properties however you won't get any intellisense for the lib as .a

Tim, Thanks for the answer. I have not done this before, do you know how to do it through Compiler>extra flags ?

by the way if you switch on visual micro>compiler verbose you can grab the output trace. Part of the build includes the core.a so you can see the format.
