Hi
I'm a new boost user.
I downloaded the pre-built Visual Studio 2005/vc80 version of boost from
http://www.boost-consulting.com/products/free and read the instructions at
http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html , specifically the section on
library runtimes.

I have a question; In the context of vc80, and for components which have
libraries, what's the difference between -s- and non-s static libs, e.g.
for 'thread'
-rw-r--r-- 1 John None 516994 Mar 25 2006 libboost_thread-vc80-mt-1_33_1.lib
-rw-r--r-- 1 John None 845330 Mar 25 2006
libboost_thread-vc80-mt-s-1_33_1.lib

thanks in advance
John McMahon
