[Boost-users] boost log and vc 7

Hi, I am trying to create a dll for boost log v1.33(ie a dll containing code
compiled from functions.cpp, log.cpp and log_manager.cpp) using VC++ 7.1 on
WinXP. I get the same error whether I do it from VisualStudio or using bjam.
The bjam file is : 

dll libboost_log : functions.cpp log.cpp log_manager.cpp 
        : <include>c:/Boost/include/boost-1_32
          <include>../../include ;

and the vc-Link fails with the message that it "cannot open file
'boost_log-vc71-mt-gd-1_32.lib'". I have *no* idea where or how vc-Link
comes to the conclusion that it needs that lib file. Any ideas? Thanks, 
 
Oliver
 
p.s. The output from bjam session is: 

$ bjam
...patience...
