Re: [Boost-users] [python] unresolved docstring_options symbols with1.34.0 using msvc 8 and 9

Since I guess it might make things a little easier I created this example 
project. The project and solution files were created with VC9 which I guess 
not too many will be running, but the example itself could hardly be any 
simpler and VC8 works/doesn't work just as well. The entire code is

#include <boost/python.hpp>

void a_function() {}

using namespace boost::python;

BOOST_PYTHON_MODULE(tepe)
{
    def("a_function", a_function);
}
