Hi all, Up until now I have been developing exclusively with VC++ 2010, and there my project builds just fine and without warnings. However, I am also planning to target Unix so I figured that a first step would be to make sure my project builds with MinGw. I set up my path environment variable to include the location of the MinGw 4.7.0 bin directory, and I built Boost with the following parameters: b2 variant=release link=static runtime-link=static threading=multi toolset=gcc Everything seems to be working fine (stage/lib contains all the .a files that I would expect). However, when I attempt to build my program I get tons of errors like the following: myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x28ef): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread9interruptEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x294f): undefined reference to `__imp___ZNK5boost6thread6get_idEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x295d): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost11this_thread6get_idEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x2973): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread13join_noexceptEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x2981): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread6detachEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x4600): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost11this_thread18interruptible_waitEPvNS_6detail7timeoutE' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x49c2): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost11this_thread18interruptible_waitEPvNS_6detail7timeoutE' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x667e): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost11this_thread18interruptible_waitEPvNS_6detail7timeoutE' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x90a9): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread21start_thread_noexceptEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x9134): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread21start_thread_noexceptEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text+0x917e): undefined reference to `__imp___ZN5boost6thread9interruptEv' myprog_main.o:myprog_main.cpp:(.text$_ZN5boost6detail11thread_dataINS_3_bi6bind_tIvPFvPN5myprog5themeEENS2_5list1INS2_5valueIS6_EEEEEEED1Ev[boost::detail::thread_data<boost::_bi::bind_t<void, void (*)(myprog::theme*), boost::_bi::list1<boost::_bi::value<myprog::theme*> > >

Etc... I tried to specify -DBOOST_NO_LIB and add all the libraries manually, but no luck. Then I thought that maybe there's a problem with the fact that there are spaces in some of my directory names, so I copied the relevant .a files to the same directory as the program itself but still with no success. At this point, I'm swamped. I have managed to compile MinGw programs in the past that used Boost Thread, so I have no idea why it is not working with this version of Boost. Any suggestions would be highly appreciated. Kind regards, Philip Bennefall
