how to add .a library in my project

Hi,

How do I add a third party library, which has the extension .a, into my Keil project?

Since Keil IDE only allows me to add .lib files, so I rename the file from thirdparty.a to thirdparty.lib, then I am able to add.

I wonder whether or not it is safe to do that. I guess .a file was created by Linux archiving tool: ar; that thirdparty.a maybe was compiled by arm-gcc. Does Keil also use arm-gcc?
