Re: [Boost-users] library linking

I believe random.hpp is a header only library, so you shouldn't need to link against anything for that. On Wed, Apr 7, 2010 at 2:06 PM, wrote:

hello, but now on the boost website it is option that you can either install boost libraries for windows or for unix-like operating systems i-e cygwin. But please tell me if i am using boost/random.hpp then where is the library of this header file so that I can link it on run time. thank you for your concern.

You may need to compile the boost libraries for your version of cygwin, as far as I know the binaries that come with the installer are for Visual Studio, and the binary interface between the two isn't compatible...

When I compile using g++ on cygwin by giving the path of boost root directory (c:\boost\boost_1_42_0) it is ok. But when I try to make .exe file from .o file then it gives me error. Please tell me how should I link boost libraries to my program? in which directory are these boost libraries.? please reply must. my whole project is just a pice of writing nothing else. thank you _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.orgmailto:Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
