[Boost-users] using boost :: thread in Linux

HI, I am using boost::thread for my project. I have extracted only boost::thread through BCP and I have build my multithreading application. It is working properly in my local machine (Windows)now I have to port it over to linux box. I had couple of questions ...?? Is it ok to copy the boost::thread folder (That I have extracted) from my local machine to linux box and run my application?? or is it that I have to install the entire boost library in linux box and then by using bcp I have to extract only boost:thread part which I can use for my application?? Please let me know what can be the possible solution.If there is any other solution please feel free to advice. Thanks In Advance Ayan.
