However I then got this error message "Mixing a dll boost library with a static runtime is a really bad idea...". So it seems autolink wasn't finding my libraries.
That suggests a build problem somewhere: do you still have BOOST_ALL_DYN_LIB defined or something?
In order to get around this I then disabled the boost autolink feature and linked to the static libraries manually. The application was then able to compile correctly but I then received a runtime error complaining about a corrupt heap, my code ran just fine before.
Sounds like you're mixing different runtime library versions - your linker should have emitted warnings or errors about that, either way it's a really bad idea, and the very problem that auto-linking was intended to solve! HTH, John.
