My situation is as follows. Using Visual Studio 2008 C++ (express) and boost 1.35 (binary install). Create /clr application, add the libraries for the compiler and the linker, change from /clr pure to straight /clr so that it compiles.
If I then add a file that contains absolutely nothing other than "#include <boost/thread.hpp>", my application will not launch, giving an error dialog saying that it failed to initialize.
DISCLAIMER: I've never worked with VS 2008 and have only brief exposure to /clr programs. In that brief exposure, I was horrified to find that in a mixed-mode DLL, the MS runtime doesn't bother to run constructors for static objects -- breaking one of the fundamental guarantees of C++. This can't be called a solution, but I hope it helps direct your search.
