This actually runs following command to link the collected object files (mixed C/C++) with static library libraw and create a dynamic library as target
c++ -dynamiclib -o libSomeDynamicLib.jnilib [lot of object files] -L"../LibRaw/lib/" -lraw
So the process of linking takes place, but the linker complains it cannot find the symbols in the created binary of 'libraw.a' at this stage. As if libraw binaries and the compiled sources from the project created different object binaries on the same machine and architecture (target machine currently is an Intel type MacBook Pro, x86_64), with all *.o files and libraries, or at least they do seem to have different method signatures.
Also I do not understand, why code segments are compiled into libraw, like DNG ore Kodak related stuff, if this is optional.
I tried to apply same compiler binaries and options to compile other projects *.cpp resources, but linking all created binaries against libraw still fails.
Again, I checked LibRaw's collected output of './configure', but cannot get insights why the binaries cannot be linked together:

This is the (sample) output during compilation of the sources of libraw:
The makefile for creation and linking did not change. This is how linking of the source code is defined:
$(TARGET_LIB): $(SOURCES) $(OBJS) $(LIBRAW_STATIC_LIB) Makefile $(CXX) $(LFLAGS) $(TARGET) $(OBJ_VECTOR) $(OBJ_COMPLEX) $(OBJ_WRAPPER) $(LIBS)This actually runs following command to link the collected object files (mixed C/C++) with static library libraw and create a dynamic library as target
