Boost.threads: can't create static libraries under linux

Hello, all- For some reason bjam doesn't build the 'boost.thread' static libraries for me (the shared libraries _do_ build properly, though). There are no errors, no warnings- they just don't get built. I'm working with boost-1.30.2 on Red Hat 9 using bjam 3.1.7 (the prebuilt binary from sourceforge). I've tried executing ./configure and swapping out 'user.hpp', but this has no effect. I'm mystified. Am I missing something obvious? Regards, Chris Brewer

The Jamfile doesn't contain instructions for building a static library. It looks like the docs are out-of-synch. -- Dave Abrahams Boost Consulting www.boost-consulting.com
