[Boost-users] [Boost Test] 1.35 - setting up VC 7 IDE to link with Boost.Test

Using VC 7.1

I have a VC Solution with all my test programs.  These use the
serialization library and boost test - test_exec_monitor.

I've recently wanted to make some changes in 1.35 and now
none of my projects link anymore.  They build with bjam
but I can't get them linked with VC 7 IDE.

I don't have autolink suppressed.  There is no message
indicating that it can't find file test.....lib.  What I get
is undefined symbols.  This i od to me as I don't use
any symbosl unit_test ....

I've also tried including the library  unit_test_framework.  That doesn't
seem to help either.  Any suggestions would be appreciated.
