[Boost-users] build under MSVC with changed library name

Hello,

I'm using Boost under MSVC (build from source). Can I change the output library name of the compiled libs?
Under unix systems the libs are named: libboost_<sublib>.so
Under Windows ( http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_50_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#or-simplified-build-from-source ) there are a lot of other information in the filename.
So I need only a special build type (no debug, mt, etc), so I would like to tell b2, that the name of the libraries are only boost_<sublib>.dll under Windows.

How can I do this renaming on the compiling call?

Thanks

Phil
