Are you already creating a DLL and using it from an application?

If yes, then you need to be very careful. If your DLL interface contains C++ 
objects (and is not just a plain C interface), then the DLL must be compiled 
with exactly the same compiler switches and project defines as the application. 
You can not run a DEBUG DLL with the release version of the application. YOu can 
not use the release DLL with the debug version of the application. You can not 
statically link the C/C++ runtime library to the DLL and use the DLL version of 
the runtime lib with the APP. Both modules must have the same settings for 
interator debugging.

I guess you are having a windows DLL problem, not a boost problem. Tell us more 
about your project setup, maybe we can help then.
