[Coin-discuss] shared vs static libs

I think I am getting static libs... how can I tell. In the old days it 
was .a or .so. My app doesn't seem to be picking up changes without a 
relink... so I think I have static.

Note, I am also doing --enable-debug configure. Is the default different 
for debug vs optimized?
