Re: [Boost-users] [serialization] -- compiling but notlinking...undefined references

You might try running the serialization tests - note - takes a while.

There is a korn shell script in the boost/libs/serialization/test directory.

typically you can invoke runtest <toolset>

If this works but you can't do it without bjam - check out the
bjam output to see how its differing from your own command line
input.

P.S.  I would start just by checking the usual suspects -
environmental variables which hold paths to directories
containing libraries etc.
