Hello, I have been using boost.test with reasonable success, then all of a sudden I have a link error. Obviously I have changed something aobut my project settings. Perhaps someone could help me identify what I have done. I am using boost 1.41.0 on msvc 9.0. The linker is looking for LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'boost_unit_test_framework-vc90-mt-gd-1_41.lib' This lib is not built by running bjam. I have tried all manner of bjam arguments even: bjam --build-type=complete but I only get boost*.dll and libboost*.lib libraries built. I have tried adding #define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK and removing it! All this has no effect on my link error, or the file to which the linker is linking. Thanks for any guidance. Si

That's the import lib for the debug-mutithreaded dll build.

Are there no import lib's corresponding to the dll's? There should be one for each dll but with a .lib suffix. BTW, after a quick look at the Boost.Test source, it appears you must have either BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK or BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK defined somewhere for that lib to be searched for. HTH, John.
