Hi,

I am linking my project statically with boost_rexeg in Cygwin, using toolset msvc. But my executable still looks for boost_regex when I run it. Also, it shows boost_regex when I run depends.exe on it. Is this normal? Coming from Linux, I would expect no dependency on boost_regex (boost_regex does not show for ldd on the binary). How can I remove these dependencies?

Thank you,
Andrej
