I've never needed to do that. boost_unit_test_framework should be enough. Interesting. Because I'm finding the following: $ ${CXX} -c --std=c++0x -g -I${TARGET}/include cma.cpp -o cma.o $ ${CXX} --std=c++0x -g cma.o ${TARGET}/lib/libboost_unit_test_framework.dylib -o cma Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_main", referenced from: implicit entry/start for main executable ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status $ But that is also what I'm finding with the system GCC and the Fink install of Boost 1.46, and so that behavior isn't unique my attempt to build/use a Boost with GCC 4.8.0 using --std=c++0x. $ g++ -c -g -I/sw/include cma.cpp -o cma.o $ g++ -g -L/sw/lib cma.o -lboost_unit_test_framework-mt Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64: "_main", referenced from: start in crt1.10.6.o ld: symbol(s) not found for architecture x86_64 collect2: ld returned 1 exit status $ g++ --version i686-apple-darwin11-llvm-g++-4.2 (GCC) 4.2.1 (Based on Apple Inc. build 5658) (LLVM build 2336.11.00) Copyright (C) 2007 Free Software Foundation, Inc.
