Not sure I understand what the above means. Can you explain what the
auto-linking code expect the name of the resulting lib to be? How do I
know if I have it in a form that is expected by the auto-linking code? 

Thanks John,
Martin

The regex lib is "just a bunch of source files", so create a new static
lib project in your IDE, set the appropriate build options, and add the
regex source (in libs/regex/src) to it.  Unless you name the resulting
lib the same way that our auto-linking code expects then you will need
to turn off auto-linking support in your app by defining
BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB when building, then add a dependency to the static
regex lib to your apps IDE project.

HTH, John.
