Hi,

i'm stuck and a bit confused, maybe you can help by just saying YES or 
what i am doing wrong :D

I build boost useing the following bjam call:

bjam --build-dir=bin.test --toolset=msvc-9.0 -link=static 
--runtime-link=shared --threading=multi

This results sucessfully in libraries like:

libboost_system-vc90-mt-1_46.lib

I want to use the boost library in a VC9 Project, compiled with the /MD or 
/MDd option, and i am a bit confused by the "..-mt-.." letters.

So my questions are:
        - 1. Is boost compiled (with the above parameters) useing the 
Visual Studio /MT compiler option?
        - 2. If so, how can i compile boost as static lib with the /MD and 
the /MDd options?

Background:
        - I recently run into some Heap-errors during debug mode, while 
initializing some boost::asio objects. i think, different compile options 
between boost and my project may be the reason.

Best regards and thank you very much,
Hanno Hugenberg
