Re: [Boost-users] Specifying library locations for g++

I just realized you are using mingw gcc4. Mingw doesn't support gcc4 and you are generally advised to stay away from it for many reasons. gcc 4 remove #pragma comment(lib, "") support which is why auto-linking doesn't work. On 5/30/07, Bobby Ward wrote:

You're right of course. I mistakenly assumed you were using MSYS.

If you plan to use your tools from the Windows command prompt, you're in the right place.

That would be me. I built gcc using msys, but I'm using the vanilla Windows command window to build programs with gcc.

Anyway, that pseudo-disclaimer doesn't change what the rest of the document implies about gcc and auto-linking, IMO.
