# Link These Library Files

Rendezvous C++ programs must link the appropriate library files. Choose from the appropriate table based on operating system platform.

## UNIX

In UNIX environments, both shared and static libraries are available. We recommend shared libraries to ease forward migration.

Linker Flags for UNIX

Linker Flag | Description
Rendezvous C++ Library All programs must link this library.
`-ltibrvcpp` | All programs must link using this library flag.
Communications, Data and Event Manager All programs must link only one of these two libraries.
`-ltibrv` | All programs must link this library.
Secure Daemon
`-ltibrvsd` | Programs that connect to secure daemons (`rvsd`, `rvsrd`) must link using this library flag.
Certified Message Delivery, Fault Tolerance, and Distributed Queues Programs may also link one or more of these libraries as needed.
`-ltibrvcm` | Programs that use certified message delivery must link using this library flag. Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag.
`-ltibrvft` | Programs that use fault tolerance features must link using this library flag. Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag.
`-ltibrvcmq` | Programs that use distributed queues must link using this library flag. In addition, distributed queue programs also use communications, certified message delivery, and fault tolerance libraries; they must link with appropriate flags from those groups.

## Microsoft Windows

The C++ library is only available as a static library; the C library is available as a DLL and as a static library. To create a C++ DLL, you must recompile the Rendezvous C++ library; see Source Code Distribution.

Library Files for Microsoft Windows

Library File | Description
Rendezvous C++ Library All programs must link only one of these C++ libraries.
`libtibrvcpp.lib` | Rendezvous C++ libraries. Static libraries, for use with the `/MT` compiler option.

Communications, Data and Event Manager All programs must link only one of these C libraries.
`tibrv.lib` | Rendezvous C library. DLL (import library).
`libtibrv.lib` | Rendezvous C library. Static library, for use with the `/MT` compiler option.
`libtibrvmd.lib` | Rendezvous C library. Static library, for use with the `/MD` compiler option.
Secure Daemon Programs that connect to secure daemons (`rvsd`, `rvsrd`) must link only one of these sets of libraries.
    tibrvsd.lib
     libcrypto.lib
     ssleay32.lib
| Secure daemon additions. DLL (import library).
    libtibrvsd.lib

Certified Message Delivery Programs that use certified message delivery must link only one of these C libraries. Programs that use distributed queues must link only one of these libraries.
`tibrvcm.lib` | Rendezvous certified message delivery software. DLL (import library).
`libtibrvcm.lib` | Rendezvous certified message delivery software. Static library, for use with the `/MT` compiler option.
