Hi;

This is my first attempt at using Boost. Thought I'd start with the unit 
test lib.
I tried to make unit_test_framework1.cpp, which compiled but failed to 
link, producing several errors like the one below:

C:/Boost/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mgw-s-1_32.lib(test_tools.obj)(.rdata$_ZTISt9exception+0x0):test_tools.cpp: 
first defined here 
/mingw/lib/libstdc++.a(vterminate.o)(.text$_ZTSSt9exception+0x0): 
multiple definition of `typeinfo name for std::exception'

I compiled the Boost library using bjam with following options:
bjam "-sMINGW_ROOT_DIRECTORY=C:\Dev-Cpp\bin" "-sTOOLS=mingw" 
"-sBUILD=release <runtime-link>static <threading>single" install

Result:
...failed updating 10 targets...
...skipped 3 targets...
...updated 3164 targets...

My cmd. to make unit_test_framework1.cpp is:
g++ -I"C:\Boost\include\boost-1_32" -L"C:\Boost\lib" 
C:\Boost\lib\libboost_unit_test_framework-mgw-s-1_32.lib -o 
boost_test.exe boost_test.o

Thank You for Your patience and help
Jacek
