I'm a newbie, and I'm trying to get the most basic example unit test up and running.  The following works:

#define BOOST_TEST_MAIN
#include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(my_test)
{
  BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(4, 4);
}

However, it takes a while to compile, so I want to use the DLL version of the library.  I built the DLL according to the instructions here:

        http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_42_0/libs/test/doc/html/utf/compilation/standalone.html

Then I updated my source as follows:

#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#include <boost/test/included/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE(my_test) {
  BOOST_CHECK_EQUAL(4, 4);
}

When compiling the above, though, I get a seemingly unending stream of C4273 warnings:

C:\Program Files\\boost\boost_1_42\boost/test/impl/compiler_log_formatter.ipp(61
) : warning C4273: 'boost::unit_test::output::compiler_log_formatter::log_start'
 : inconsistent dll linkage
        C:\Program Files\\boost\boost_1_42\boost/test/output/compiler_log_format
ter.hpp(39) : see previous definition of 'log_start'
C:\Program Files\\boost\boost_1_42\boost/test/impl/compiler_log_formatter.ipp(71
) : warning C4273: 'boost::unit_test::output::compiler_log_formatter::log_finish
' : inconsistent dll linkage
        C:\Program Files\\boost\boost_1_42\boost/test/output/compiler_log_format
ter.hpp(40) : see previous definition of 'log_finish'
C:\Program Files\\boost\boost_1_42\boost/test/impl/compiler_log_formatter.ipp(79
) : warning C4273: 'boost::unit_test::output::compiler_log_formatter::log_build_
info' : inconsistent dll linkage

etc.

Any hints re: what I'm doing wrong are much appreciated.

Cheers,
Nate
