static-libraries

I inherited a project (lucky me!) which relies on a static library. Trying to build the static lib, I get this error:

/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/libtool: -dynamic not specified the following flags are invalid: -ObjC

It is followed by these two lines, which I do understand, but this appears to be a separate problem (missing file.)

/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/libtool: can't locate file for: -lFlurryWithLocation
/Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/libtool: file: -lFlurryWithLocation is not an object file (not allowed in a library)
Command /Developer/Platforms/iPhoneSimulator.platform/Developer/usr/bin/libtool failed with exit code 1

Am I wrong, and it's all related? Will the 1st line error go away if I fix the missing file part?

Either way, what does the -dynamic not specified part of message mean?

Thanks!
