Can someone explain (*) how Visual Studio gets to know which lib file to link with ? I see an entry (Auto-Linking under point 6 on the Getting Started page) which says that it does this, but I'd like to know how. I want to be sure that once I've started using Boost in a project then any of my colleagues building the same project will get the libraries pice-up properly. (*) or point me to the code that does it. Is is some sort of compiler directive that controls it ? It's Visual Studio 6 that I'm using, but I expect it's the same for others.
