   Hi Gennadiy.

> What do you see if you compile thread library examples?

   I just tried building boost thread examples on the trunk on Windows 
using MSVC 7.1. and all worked fine.

  Used the command 'bjam --toolset=msvc' in the 
trunk/libs/thread/example folder.

   There were no errors and all warning messages I got were about 
boost::mutex and boost::intrusive_ptr<T> needing to have a DLL interface 
in order to be used by clients of class boost::thread. Not really sure I 
understand the warnings but did not go into them at the moment... Final 
message displayed was '...updated 39 targets...'.

   So my guess is that this is caused by something in your configuration...

   Has this perhaps been resolved since?

   Does this same command in this same folder work for you?

   In case it does not, could you run the bjam command with the 
'--debug-building' option and paste the results? That was we can see 
exactly which <tag> properties got assigned to the problematic target 
which could give us a clue what to grep for to find the problem...

   Hope this helps.
