This description is very vague. What did you try, and how did it fail.

To include a library with your project, you have to include it in the modules passed to the linker. The exact steps to do this depend on the tools you are using. That part has nothing to do with the OS.

Now, if you are successfully compiling the library into your app and it doesn't run, that COULD be related to the OS.
