[Boost-users] A error to link boost program_options(mingw)

I try to compile the first.cpp example of boost program_options library
I use the command g++ first.cpp -lboost_program_options-mt. It fails when
linking.

But I also try use the same command to compile simple_ls.cpp of filesystem,
boost_back_inserter_example.cpp of iostream, days_alive.cpp of date_time(The
library link is also different). It compiles and works as expected. I use
depends.exe of VS.Net 2003 to prove the exe is depended on the dll file.

The error of program_options is as below

I want to know how to link the dynamic library of program_options
