Hi All,

In order to get a multi platform build,

I added

<use>/boost
...

to my project root,

I also specified

<define>BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB=1

To my surprise, the vc71 linker complains with:

LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file
'boost_unit_test_framework-vc71-mt-gd-1_32.lib'

It tries to find a name that should /not/ be there, the
*-vc71-mt-gd-1_32* bit should only happen with autolinking enabled
(which I turned off!)

With gcc it works fine; and besides the vc71 boost lib in
$(boost_root)/bin.v2 is called *"boost_unit_test_framework.lib".

*How is this possible? (Do I need another macro?)

Thanks in advance,

Dirk Griffioen
