Hi,
I've been having problems linking to boost using
mingw. I installed boost linking to mingw, but it installed the
necessary boost-mgw files with either .dll or .lib extensions, which
mingw can't use! I tried
renaming the .lib's to .a's and the .dll's to .so's, which didn't
work. then I tried adding a 'lib' prefix to each .a or .so, which
still didn't work... there isn't actually a boost_thread library file,
it's got some version number at the end - would that be a
problem? Did I install it correctly? I'm linking to it
using -lboost_thread in mingw (gcc).
Any help much appreciated.
Thanks,
Imran
