[Boost-users] Re: [Boost.Test] Link error, need to be pointed in the right direction

You need to link with the Unit Test Framework component of Boost.Test Compile it (using bjam or you could use project file supplied with library, VC 2005 will cmvert it to appropriate format automatically) and add to the list of libraries to link with. HTH, Gennadiy
