Hi, I have used various boost-libraries before but now, when I am trying to build the simple Boost.Threads test application posted by Peter Dimov on this list the other day (http://tinyurl.com/aotq7), I am stuck :-( I copied and pasted Peter's code into an empty Win32-Console-project in my development environment - which happens to be VC++7.1... When trying to get the build through, I get the error: "Mixing a dll boost library with a static runtime is a really bad idea...". This message is probably more than enough for most experienced Boost and Windows developers to say - Oh yes, my stupid #¤*@£¤ I must of course do that and that too, to get the build through. However, poor me is left clueless. I have once built all of boost using bjam so I have two different boost_thread- vc71-mt-*.dlls and the corresponding lib-files within the boost/lib-folder. But I do not know how to set-up my project to first get the compile and then the link through. And I cannot find any helpful information in the Boost.Threads documentation?! Even Google didn't provide any help... So I'd be very glad for any help from you guys! Regards, Sam
