[Boost-users] Question about compiling boost.1.31.0 on Solaris

I was trying to build the regex library from boost.1.31.0 on a Solaris 7 box
using STLport.4.6.2. I have a  couple of STLport versions installed in /opt.

Here's  how I built:

  o cd  boost_1_31_0/libs/regex/build
  o /export/home/qiuw01/research/boost-jam-3.1.9/bin.solaris/bjam
"-sTOOLS=sunpro-stlport" -sSTLPORT_PATH=/opt

I was expecting STLport.4.6.2 to be used. However when I used ldd on the
generated .so library, it shows a dependency
on an old version of STLport in /usr/lib

qiuw01$ ldd libboost_regex-sw-p-1_31.so
        librt.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/librt.so.1
        libstlport_sunpro.so.4.5 =>      /usr/lib/libstlport_sunpro.so.4.5
        libaio.so.1 =>   /usr/lib/libaio.so.1
        libc.so.1 =>     /usr/lib/libc.so.1
        libdl.so.1 =>    /usr/lib/libdl.so.1
        /usr/platform/SUNW,Ultra-4/lib/libc_psr.so.1
<ethos:~/research/boost_1_31_0/bin/boost/libs/regex/build/libboost_regex.so/
sunpro-stlport/release>

This doesn't seem to be right. Any comments?

Thanks,
