First of all, apologies if this information can be found somewhere else. I couldn't find it anywhere on the internet. Now to the real problem. I'm simply trying to utilize the boost libraries (filesystem in particular) in my program. I'm just trying to even run the example programs. I'm using Visual C++ 6.0 sp5. I figured out how to compile it by including the directory where boost is. So the example program compiles perfectly fine. Then the shit hits the fan, every reference to any boost object gets an unresolved external error. I have no clue why this is happening, and the most frustrating part is I cannot find information anywhere on the internet on how to make it work. I find lots of references telling me how great it is, but I cannot use it!
