Re: [Boost-users] Issue linking to static boost thread library (Newbie)

Thanks for the reply.

When I change the linker line to this (added the .a
extension):
g++
-L/home/fejimush/development/libraries/boost_1_33_1/stage/lib
-o"ManagedMakeProject"  ./main.o  
-lboost_thread-gcc-mt-d-1_33_1.a

I get the follow error:
/usr/lib/gcc/i686-pc-linux-gnu/4.1.1/../../../../i686-pc-linux-gnu/bin/ld:
cannot find -lboost_thread-gcc-mt-d-1_33_1.a

The file is there and everything seems to be spelled
correctly, path and filename.  

I am coming from the ms windows world and used to the
IDE pretty much doing the makefiles and
compiler/linker arguments for you.  It's probably
something trivial.

Thanks again,
Graham
