[Boost-users] Bjam Build Modes

I am trying to build a boost library and I would get the error from the auto linker

Error 2 fatal error C1189: #error : "Mixing a dll boost library with a static runtime is a really bad idea..." c:\bin\boost 1.34.1\boost\config\auto_link.hpp 287

So I changed to a multithreaded dll runtime and I get the error

Error 1 fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_log-vc80-mt-gd-1_34_1.lib'

But when I build my boost library 

bjam /boost/xxx/build/

It creates a hierarchy like

c:\bin\boost 1.34.1\bin.v2
└───libs
    └───xxx
        └───build
            └───msvc-8.0express
                └───debug
                    └───link-static

...........................  libboost_xxx-vc80-gd-1_34_1.lib
...........................  libboost_xxx-vc80-gd-1_34_1.lib.rsp

Clearly, I did not have the multithreaded versions, and I can not figure out what options, what definitions, what anything, to build all install stage or whatever

The Jamfile is overtly simple

project boost/xxx;
     : requirements 
        <include>$(BOOST_ROOT) 
        <link>static
        <link>shared:<define>BOOST_LOG_SOURCE
     : usage-requirements
        <link>shared:<define>BOOST_DATE_TIME_DYN_LINK=1
     : source-location ../src
     ;

LOG_SOURCES = blah blah blah;
lib boost_xxx : ../src/$(LOG_SOURCES).cpp ;
