Re: [Boost-users] Portability of boost libs for "universal linux binary?"

I've seen static libs generated for boost-thread, but I've had bad luck trying to get a statically linked thread lib to work (though my issues may be caused by something that is not boost::thread related) . I'll give it another go and see what we can come up with. -- Zach me22 wrote:

I strongly suspect that the thread lib is going to be the biggest cause of grief towards accomplishing this goal (mostly due to the inability to static link it). Are the other (non thread) boost libs statically linkable?

After building boost 1.33.1 in Gentoo with the static USE flag on, I get a /usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt-s.a

I don't see anything (not header-only) in boost that doesn't have a static lib: /usr/lib/libboost_date_time-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_date_time-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_date_time-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_date_time-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_filesystem-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_iostreams-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_iostreams-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_iostreams-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_iostreams-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_prg_exec_monitor-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_program_options-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_python-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_python-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_python-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_python-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_regex-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_regex-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_regex-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_regex-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_serialization-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_serialization-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_serialization-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_serialization-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_signals-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_signals-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_signals-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_signals-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_test_exec_monitor-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_test_exec_monitor-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_test_exec_monitor-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_test_exec_monitor-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_thread-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_wave-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_wave-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_wave-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_wave-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization-mt-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization-mt-sd.a /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization-s.a /usr/lib/libboost_wserialization-sd.a
