[boost] [newbie] using non "header-only" boost libraries, but not linking the ".lib"

I'm using filesystem library. I'm using it under vs2005 on windows, and g++
on mac.
Instead of linking the .lib I'd like to include the source files of the fs
library in my project.
I tried to include all the ".cpp" under the filesystem/src directory in the
vs2005 project. But the linker still ask for the lib. As far as know I
didn't mention the .lib in the project.

Why is that?

The project files are created using cmake.
