Re: [Boost-users] Using the /RTC option without specifying a debug runtime will lead to linker errors

"/RTC cannot be used with compiler optimizations " http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/8wtf2dfz(v=VS.100).aspx

Thanks for your reply Igor, I'm aware of that /RTC cannot be used with optimizations and therefore I disabled them (/Zd If I remember correctly),

Well, if you don't mind to disable optiomizations, then what do you mean by saying "release build"?

however I still get the boost error.

I believe, you have to compile with /MTd (or /MDd, if you link CRT dynamically). See "C/C++" --> "Code generation" page.
