You Jamroot has this in requirements:

        <toolset>msvc:<link>static

So, naturally, everything is built statically, everywhere. You need to either:

- Remove that requirement in Jamroot
- Add additional <link>shared requirement on your library
- Cancel out Jamroot's requirement by adding -<toolset>msvc:<link>static requirement on your library

Does this help?
