Hi!

I have some problems getting started with boost::test. 

I tried to build a Vc7 project using the code of
http://boost.org/libs/test/test/result_report_test.cpp, but this
fails to compile due to unresolved symbol init_unit_test_suite.

libboost_unit_test_framework-vc71-mt-sgd-1_33_1.lib(framework.obj) : error
LNK2019: Nicht aufgelöstes externes Symbol '"class boost::unit_test::test_suite
* __cdecl init_unit_test_suite(int,char * * const)"
(?init_unit_test_suite@@YAPAVtest_suite_at_unit_test_at_boost@@HQAPAD_at_Z)', verwiesen
in Funktion '"void __cdecl boost::unit_test::framework::init(int,char * *
const)" (?init_at_framework@unit_test_at_boost@@YAXHQAPAD_at_Z)'
Debug/test.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unaufgelöste externe Verweise

Am I missing anything?

I found out that 
#include <boost/test/included/test_exec_monitor.hpp>
resolves the problem, but is this the correct solution?

best regards,

Markus
