Sorry, I have been busy. This was tested using a snapshot from 9/3/2006_at_8:56:

cw.link.dll ..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\filesystem\build\cw-9.4\debug\boost_filesystem-cw94-gd-1_34.dll ..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\filesystem\build\cw-9.4\debug\boost_filesystem-cw94-gd-1_34.lib
### mwld Usage Warning:
#   The file '..\..\..\bin.v2\libs\filesystem\build\cw-9.4\debug\exception.obj' may be ignored unless it has one of the following
#   extensions: ".def"
### mwld Linker Warning:
#   No symbols were exported, deleting import library 'boost_filesystem-cw94-gd-1_34.lib'
...updated 6 targets...

Does CW support the __declspec(dllexport) or older __export usage? Is so, is it being correctly detected for CW? Otherwise, a def file would be needed (which would work for older compilers or compilers like DigitalMars that don't have this mechanism).

However... it appears to be working for V1, so are the auto-link defines set up correctly?
