Folks,
 
Hopefully this is me having finger trouble, but I can't seem to get around the problem.
 
Boost 1.35 installed using the binary installer, all the vc8 flavours installed.
 
What happens is that I try to compile / link any of the unit test examples in Visual Studio 2005 Pro, for example the code at
 
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/test/example/unit_test_example_05.cpp
 
I keep getting the LNK1561: entry point must be defined error. I know that it's looking for, and picking up, the libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-1_35.lib as if I remove the /LIBPATH from the link command options it compains that it cannot find that library.
 
I have my project settings set as follows:
 
Compiler:
/O2 /GL /I "C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_35_0"  /D "_MBCS" /FD /EHa /MD /Fo"Release\\" /Fd"Release\vc80.pdb" /W3 /nologo /c /Wp64 /Zi /TP /errorReport:prompt
 
Linker:
/OUT:"D:\staffan\Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\CeT3x\test\AllUnitTests\Release\test_XOLibrary.exe" /NOLOGO /LIBPATH:"C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_35_0\lib" /MANIFEST /MANIFESTFILE:"Release\test_XOLibrary.exe.intermediate.manifest" /DEBUG /PDB:"d:\staffan\Documents\Visual Studio 2005\Projects\CeT3x\test\AllUnitTests\release\test_XOLibrary.pdb" /OPT:REF /OPT:ICF /LTCG /MACHINE:X86 /ERRORREPORT:PROMPT kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib winspool.lib comdlg32.lib advapi32.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib odbc32.lib odbccp32.lib
 
Any thoughts anyone?
