Linking a static library with gcc on Centos7 not working - c

Question

I have a Java JNI project that uses the following command to build on Mac OS
gcc -g -I/my-project-dir -o libmylibrary.jnilib -lc -shared -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include/darwin -L ./quickjs-2021-03-27 -l quickjs /my-project-dir/Native.c
Where /my-project-dir contains a file Native.h that Native.c uses. quickjs-2021-03-27 is this open source project/library that I downloaded, unzipped, and ran make install which produced /quickjs-2021-03-27/libquickjs.a. It works perfectly on MacOS and builds/links successfully.
I then try running this following code in Centos7
gcc -v -Wall -Wl,-no-undefined -fPIC -I/my-project-dir -o libmylibrary.so -lc -shared -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include/linux -L ./quickjs-2021-03-27 -l quickjs /my-project-dir/Native.c
I get the following error:
Using built-in specs.

However, if I do an ls inside ./quickjs-2021-03-27 I can clearly see that there is a libquickjs.a and quickjs.h and quickjs-libc.h files that are needed for compilation are there.
Any help would be appreaciated.
UPDATE:
I actually now changed the command to:
gcc -g -o libquickjs.so -fPIC -shared /my-project-dir/Native.c -I$JAVA_HOME/include -I$JAVA_HOME/include/linux -I./quickjs-2021-03-27 -Wl,-Bstatic -L./quickjs-2021-03-27 -lquickjs -Wl,-Bdynamic -ldl -lpthread
And got the following error now:

Answer 1

I was able to compile using the following command:
gcc -g -Wall -Wl,-no-undefined -fPIC -I/my-project-dir /my-project-dir/Native.c -o libmylibrary.so -lc -shared -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include -I"${JAVA_HOME}"/include/linux -L ./quickjs-2021-03-27 -l quickjs -lpthread -lm -ldl
