It's normal configure stuff. Either LDFLAGS environment variable, or a configure option (--extra-ldflags=-labc) (though your static file should be named libabc.a, FWIW).

If libabc.a is in "some other folder" then you will have to/need to add the folder to the configure as well, like

--extra-ldflags='-L/path/to/my/library -labc'

If your library is installed to the system path you shouldn't need the directory adder.

Also make sure its got the same "binding" (basically, libabc.a needs to be all C code, if it is C++ code then "surrounding" the method Fun_abc you will need and extern "C" { block. GL!
