[FFmpeg-user] How to build for static ffmpeg executable

[John Pompeii]

Thanks for the reply James,
1) I have static libs for all of the media libraries, however the build is not using them.  If I simply remove the *.dll.a libs from the /lib directory as suggested in the reply you are referring to (so that only the static libs are available), I get about 10K unresolved symbol errors from the linker2) libgcc_s_seh, libglib, libstd++, libharfbuzz, etc are not external libraries that I can build, they are part of the environment.  From what I can tell, the linker is instructed to link to shared libraries, and I cant see anything in the configure script that modifies those options.  As I pointed out, the windows binaries that are provided on the ffmpeg site don't contain gcc/gnu dlls and I would assume there is a build configuration that enables that.  Or not?
Maybe another way to ask this question is: How do I replicate the static ffmpeg build for windows?

As you were told on ffmpeg-devel: build these *external* libraries as
static libraries.
