Re: [Boost-users] [test] cannot wipe out linker errors

Hi Gennadiy,

This fix only solved one of the LNK2005s. The following error is still
appearing:

error LNK2005: "class unit_test_log_t::boost::unit_test_log_t &
boost::unit_test::`anonymous namespace'::unit_test_log"
(?unit_test_log@?A0x7aa5c0d5_at_unit_test_at_boost@@3AAVunit_test_log_t_at_23@A)
already defined in database_test.obj

Does this fix only applies to MSVC 7.1 only?

Thanks,
Christian
