[Boost-users] Newbie: Run Time "Undefined Symbol"

 We are moving a windows JNI library to the Linux work.... Yahoo..

We used the boost library for some of our work and we have it compiling
under Eclipse C/C++ (g++) without errors. 

The Problem is....When I run ldd -r AliveJNI.so... I get a bunch of
"Undefined Symbols" for the boost library. I want them to be linked in
statically so I only have to ship one file with my product. What am I
doing wrong. The linker isn't complaining, but when I call it or use ldd
I get undefined symbols.
