title: How do I use a 3rd party C library in Xcode for my iphone project?
body: <p>love this site and all helpful people! I'm newbie to Xcode and iPhone programming but I've pretty much got the hang of using the SDK to make programs in Obj-C (simple programs right now but make me happy). My experience is web programming (such as PHP and Perl) and I'm not really used to a lot of the new Xcode/desktopy-app stuff like static libraries and linking and such. I be honest, I am not total awesome programmer yet!</p>
  
  <p>I have a problem right now, my (card game) program I am writing needs to use <a href="http://www.codingthewheel.com/archives/a-pokersource-poker-eval-primer" rel="nofollow noreferrer">this</a> C library. I don't really understand how I get the proper C files and integrate them into my project so I can start using the commands in that tutorial to evaluate hand values.</p>
  
  <p>I hope I have been clear, please let me know if there is anything I am leaving out. Unfortunately, my newbieness may prevent from me making everything so clear and sometimes I can't english perfectly what I am thinking!</p>
  
  <p>Happy thanks in advance, looking forward to any help!</p>
