Library Dependencies (n00b question)

Hey all,

I am trying to create a library that depends on a large number of other library files.  In Visual Studio, I simply specify all the libraries like so: ../dependencies/libs/*.a

In the Jamfile, I am simulating that like this:

lib dependencies :
        : <file>$(env)/custom/lib1.a
                <file>$(env)/custom/lib2.a
                <file>$(env)/custom/lib3.a
# and so on...
        ;

Is there any way I can do a glob command instead?  The other option I tried was to simply provide a <linkflag> option to my library, but that didn't work either.

Any ideas?

Thanks!
