I agree with you up until this point.

I have many applications that link against OLB libraries. The code from the library gets copied into the executable. My build procedures rarely link against OBJ files. Much better to have them in a library.

You are right. What I wrote is not true.

I was thinking about /NOSYSSHR.

Static linking with VMS & compiler RTL's is very uncommon on VMS.
