[Boost-users] library naming of boost 1.35.0

hi,

i try to compile boost 1.35.0 with mingw 3.4.5, bjam 3.1.16 and winxp sp2.
so i created a *.BAT-file like follows:

@echo off
SETLOCAL
SET MINGW=C:\Development_Compiler\MinGW
SET PYTHN=C:\Development_Compiler\Python25
SET BUILD=C:\Development_Libs\Boost_v1.35.0
SET path=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\system32;%MINGW%\Bin
cls
bjam.exe -a "-sTOOLS=mingw" "-sGCC_ROOT_DIRECTORY=%MINGW%"
"-sPYTHON_ROOT=%PYTHN%" "-sPYTHON_VERSION=2.5" --link=static
--runtime-link=static --threading=single --optimization=on --toolset=gcc
--build-dir=%BUILD% --build-type=complete install
ENDLOCAL

for builing boost 1.34.1 (bjam 3.1.15) this works well and i get a bunch of
*.A-files (*). but with combination named above i get no *.A-files, but *.LIBs.
is there a different library naming than described in
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_35_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#library-naming
?
regardless of "--threading=single" i also get many "libboost...mt...lib"-files.
why ("--build-type=complete" covers "--threading=single"?) ?

thank you,
daniel

(*) i didn't tested it over again, but the BAT-file is always the same
