+"""Builder for static libraries composed of the contents of other static libraries.
+
+The following rule creates a library "mylib" whose contents are the contents of
+"firstlib", "secondlib", and all LIBDEPS dependencies of "firstlib" and
+"secondlib".  This creates self-contained static and shared libraries that can
+be distributed to customers.
+
+MergeLibrary('mylib', ['firstlib', 'secondlib'])
+MergeSharedLibrary('mylib', ['firstlib', 'secondlib'])
+
+This file provides the platform-independent tool, which just selects and imports
+the platform-specific tool providing MergeLibrary and MergeSharedLibrary.
