Re: [Boost-users] Simple Linking Error

including the -I/path/to/boost seemed to do the trick, however, once I
started utilizing it (asio/date_time) I started getting things such as
undefined reference to `pthread_detach'

Code directly taken from the tutorial here:
http://asio.sourceforge.net/boost_asio_0_3_7/libs/asio/doc/tutorial/tuttimer1src.html

Is there a list of the exact library names in boost/asio?
