OK, I realised static library is just object files, Compiler/(Linker?) doesn't add the binary from the dependant library
to the static library. However with autolink,  Compiler/(Linker?) put the dependant library name string
(QuantLib-vc90-mt-sgd-0_9_7.lib defined in autolink.hpp) into the static library.  So  the dll or exe using the static library
'know' which library which the static library depends on to link.

Sorry for the confusion,
Yan

Your program will need the QuantLib code in some form if it has to use
it. This means that if you don't want to link QuantLib, you'll have to
include the time/date QuantLib sources in your library and compile them
together with your wrappers.
