/* When statically linking libraries into an application the linker will only pull in all the functions and variables that are inside
translation units (CPP files) that somehow get referenced.

In ez a lot of stuff happens automatically (e.g. types register themselves etc.), which is accomplished through global variables
that execute code in their constructor during the applications startup phase. This only works when those global variables are actually
put into the application by the linker. If the linker does not do that, functionality will not work as intended.

Contrary to common conception, the linker is NOT ALLOWED to optimize away global variables. The only reason for not including a global
variable into the final binary, is when the entire translation unit where a variable is defined in, is never referenced and thus never
even looked at by the linker.

To fix this, this tool inserts macros into each and every file which reference each other. Afterwards every file in a library will
have reference every other file in that same library and thus once a library is used in any way in some program, the entire library
will be pulled in and will then work as intended.

These references are accomplished through empty functions that are called in one central location (where EZ_STATICLINK_LIBRARY is defined),
though the code actually never really calls those functions, but it is enough to force the linker to look at all the other files.

Usage of this tool:

Call this tool with the path to the root folder of some library as the sole command line argument:

StaticLinkUtil.exe "C:\ezEngine\Trunk\Code\Engine\Foundation"

This will iterate over all files below that folder and insert the proper macros.
Also make sure that exactly one file in each library contains the text 'EZ_STATICLINK_LIBRARY();'

The parameters and function body will be automatically generated and later updated, you do not need to provide more.

See the Return Codes at the end of the BeforeCoreSystemsShutdown function.
