Hello, I'm trying to link my Python extension module with static version of Boost::Python library. According to documentation, the auto_link facility should by default supply the library for static linking (libboost_python-vc80-mt-gd-1_38.lib in my case). Unfortunately it doesn't work that way for me - I get the import lib by default and have to supply boost_python dll. If I specifically provide the statically linked lib to the linker I get errors that symbols are defined multiple times by both the static library and the import library. I was able to link statically by: - defining BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB, - defining BOOST_PYTHON_STATIC_LIB, - adding libboost_python-vc80-mt-gd-1_38.lib to link libraries. While this worked I have a strong feeling that it's not the way it was meant to be. I'm using Visual Studio 2005 to compile my project (it's a Win32 DLL project), I'm using Boost 1.38 that I have compiled with bjam (which probably isn't relevant). All boost's *.lib files are in the same directory so they should be all accessible to the linker. I'm not aware of any BOOST_*_DYN_LINK being set (I have never set any Boost related defines other than the above. If you have any tips on how to verify that, I'd be grateful). Could you help me with this problem? Is there anything I should check that would cause the DLL to be used by default? -- Marcin Simonides
