No, unless I also define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK, but then I have to copy across the boost test dll (it's not picked up in the manifest by default). As far as I can tell, the culprit seems to be the following in <boost/test/unit_test.hpp> //____________________________________________________________________________// // ************************************************************************** // // ************** Auto Linking ************** // // ************************************************************************** // #if !defined(BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB) && !defined(BOOST_TEST_NO_LIB) && \ !defined(BOOST_TEST_SOURCE) && !defined(BOOST_TEST_INCLUDED) # define BOOST_LIB_NAME boost_unit_test_framework # if defined(BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK) || defined(BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK) # define BOOST_DYN_LINK # endif # include <boost/config/auto_link.hpp> #endif // auto-linking disabled // ************************************************************************** // // ************** unit_test_main ************** // // ************************************************************************** // namespace boost { namespace unit_test { int BOOST_TEST_DECL unit_test_main( init_unit_test_func init_func, int argc, char* argv[] ); }} #if defined(BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK) && defined(BOOST_TEST_MAIN) && !defined(BOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN) // ************************************************************************** // // ************** main function for tests using dll ************** // // ************************************************************************** // int BOOST_TEST_CALL_DECL main( int argc, char* argv[] ) { return ::boost::unit_test::unit_test_main( &init_unit_test, argc, argv ); } //____________________________________________________________________________// #endif // BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK && BOOST_TEST_MAIN && !BOOST_TEST_NO_MAIN Rgds Staffan Tj.

What happens is that I try to compile / link any of the unit test examples in Visual Studio 2005 Pro, for example the code at
http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/test/example/unit_test_example_05.cpp
Every time I try to click on a unit test example link I have been getting a 404 error :( Can other people use links like this?
I keep getting the LNK1561: entry point must be defined error. I know that it's looking for, and picking up, the libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-1_35.lib as if I remove the /LIBPATH from the link command options it compains that it cannot find that library.
I have my project settings set as follows:
Compiler: /O2 /GL /I "C:\Program Files (x86)\boost\boost_1_35_0" /D "_MBCS" /FD /EHa /MD /Fo"Release\\" /Fd"Release\vc80.pdb" /W3 /nologo /c /Wp64 /Zi /TP /errorReport:prompt

Any thoughts anyone?
Does it work if BOOST_TEST_MAIN is defined? --John Femiani _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users DISCLAIMER: This message (including any files transmitted with it) may contain confidential and / or proprietary information, is the property of Interactive Data Corporation and / or its subsidiaries and is directed only to the addressee(s).
