# Import Prebuilt Library Example
This example illustrates how to import a prebuilt static library in the ESP-IDF build system.
## Example Flow
Users need to first build the project in the [prebuilt](prebuilt) subdirectory:
```
cd prebuilt
idf.py build
```
This builds a component named [prebuilt](prebuilt/components/prebuilt), which has private dependency on ESP-IDF components `spi_flash`, `log` and `app_update` (see [its CMakeLists.txt](prebuilt/components/prebuilt/CMakeLists.txt)). Once built, the archive file `libprebuilt.a`, along with the header file `prebuilt.h`, is automatically copied to the [`main` component](main) of this example project.
The [`main` component's CMakeLists.txt](main/CMakeLists.txt) demonstrates how to import `libprebuilt.a` and link it to `main` so that the definitions inside can be used.
It also demonstrates how to specify the same dependencies the original component had so as to properly resolve symbols used inside the prebuilt library.
Users can then return to this directory and build the main example:
```
cd ..
idf.py build
```
### Output
The example simply outputs the current running partition.
```
I (319) prebuilt: The running partition is 'factory'!
```
