When I try to build my c++ library (in both static and dynamic mode) using visual studio 2008, in the debug folder, instead of .lib or .dll file, some .obj files are created along with an .idb and an .pdb file.
how can I make visual studio build the library file?

You're either looking in the wrong place or there's a problem in your build.
Open the
BuildLog.htmfile that VS creates when it does a build (there should be a link you can click in the Build Output window). It'll tell you where it's putting the file. Look for the line containing an "/OUT:" option.
