Re: [Boost-build] Visual studio 2005 runtime-link=static can't open lib file

That is not correct.
<link>static - specifies to link staticaly to boost_python libraries which
works fine.

I want C/S++ runtime to be linked statically as well
The problem is that <runtime-link>static complains about
"libboost_python-vc80-mt-s-1_34_1.lib "
<runtime-link>static is the same as specifying <cxxflags>/MT.

Something wrong with the above lib file. I have checked that it is present.

Scout.
