Hi folks,

I have:

installed eclipse on ubuntu 10.10

installed libbost 1.4 using sinaptic pkg manager

started a simple new c++ project,

#include <boost/thread.hpp>
int main(int argc, char* arg[]){
}

I tried to build it, and had the error:

Invoking: GCC C++ Compiler
g++ -O0 -g3 -Wall -c -fmessage-length=0 -MMD -MP -MF"main.d" -MT"main.d" -o"main.o" "../main.cpp"

                 from ../main.cpp:8:
/usr/include/boost/thread/thread.hpp:19: error: #error "Boost threads unavailable on this platform"

blablabla...so on... a lot more errors.

what am I missing here?

I dont understand the error message, and tried to write -pthread wherever I could, but did not work.

Any tips? detailed or stepbystep solution please, because I am a beginner, and dont understand chinese:)

thank you guys
