Use something, like this (bbv2):
project winentry
: source-location ../src
;

SOURCES =
WinEntry.cpp
;

exe start
: $(SOURCES) WinAppRes.rc /appcore /libpng
: <user-interface>gui
<linkflags>"user32.lib gdi32.lib kernel32.lib advapi32.lib"
;

stage bin
:
start /winui /winres
# maybe this will be useful for you (copy all *.dll files from 
(DLL_PATH) to /_out/bin)
[ path.glob $(DLLS_PATH) : *.dll ]
: <location>$(TOP)/_out/bin
<traverse-dependencies>on
<include-type>EXE
<include-type>SHARED_LIB
;
