[Boost-users] static link of boost.thread requires link to static runtime ?

Hi- I am trying to static link to boost.thread 1.32 (winXP) and I see it requires the runtimes to be linked static as well (#define _DLL mustn't be defined). I want to use the dynamic runtimes, but static link boost.thread. Is this possible ? What prevents it if not ? Thanks, -seb
