I believe you can not build regex with runtime-link=static. make it
runtime-link=shared. It worked for me on both Linux and Windows
Platforms.

Hi there,
I'm hoping someone can give me some hints on what I'm doing wrong. I'm trying to create a library that uses regex and has no external dependencies. My understanding is that I need to compile boost to be static and link static at runtime. My project is multi-platform, but I'm currently working on OSX 10.6.5.
To build boost, I'm using the following command:
sudo ./bjam link=static threading=multi runtime-link=static architecture=combined address-model=32_64 macosx-version=10.5 macosx-version-min=10.5 install
In Xcode, I've included the produced library, libboost_regex.a, in my Xcode project. I compile my dylib without errors or warning. However, I'm unable to load it. Checking the dependencies, my library seems to want the libboost_regex.dylib. Why?
$ otool -L libglobalkvp.dylib libglobalkvp.dylib: /usr/local/lib/libglobalkvp.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /Users/marcospearson/Library/Frameworks/iqvectorsdk.framework/Versions/A/iqvectorsdk (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) libboost_regex.dylib (compatibility version 0.0.0, current version 0.0.0) /usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib (compatibility version 7.0.0, current version 7.4.0) /usr/lib/libgcc_s.1.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 1.0.0) /usr/lib/libSystem.B.dylib (compatibility version 1.0.0, current version 111.1.4)
I've built, and re-build the boost libraries more times that I can remember and have read post after post, but haven't been able to figure out a solution. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Marcos
