Volodya, thanks -- it turned out I forgot the BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB.
I have another related question. If I don't use <runtime-link>static, obviously the built executable needs the runtime DLLs. My question is, is there a way to specify a directory dependent on the MSVC version that contains the necessary runtime dlls so that Boost Build can run a target that was successfully built?
Only manually: you can have something like: <toolset>msvc-8.0:<dll-path>C:/vc8/lib and it should work for running tests.
(Arguably, what I'm asking for shouldn't be supported, since the correct way to do this is to have multiple versions of Visual Studio properly installed, whereas I only have VC9 installed, from VC8 I just have the compiler/linker, libraries, runtime DLLs, etc. copied in a folder.)
I see. Let me know of the above helps. - Volodya
