This is in cygwin, using gcc.

initially I used the following (I don't use python and don't have MPI, but wanted everything else):

$ ./bootstrap.sh --with-libraries=chrono,date_time,exception,filesystem,graph,graph_parallel,iostreams,math,program_options,random,regex,serialization,signals,system,test,thread,wave

./b2 install

I then tried building QuantLib, which makes extensive use of boost, including the test framework.  But it failed because it tried linking to a multihtreaded build of the test frameqwork.  I therefore tried the following, assuming that like make, it would just build and install those targets that had not been built the first time.

$ ./bootstrap.sh --with-libraries=chrono,date_time,exception,filesystem,graph,graph_parallel,iostreams,math,program_options,random,regex,serialization,signals,system,test,thread,wave  link=static link=shared threading=single threading=multi

./b2 install

Unfortunately, it did not create the multithreaded build of the testframework that QuantLib requires.

What did I miss that is preventing me from getting the multihtreaded builds of the required libraries?

Thanks
