I am now trying to build the quick start with the VC71 IDE

My current problem is this link error: Linking... LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_wave-vc7-mt-gd-1_32.lib'

The LIB I have available is 'libboost_wave-vc71-mt-gd-1_32.lib not 'libboost_wave-vc7-mt-gd-1_32.lib'. I am not sure WHY the autolinking is trying to hit the vc70 version of the lib since I am using VC71's IDE.

(ANYONE HAVE ANY SUGGESTIONS?)

I don't know; this looks like a possible misuse of the autolink system by Wave, or... maybe you need to force-rebuild your entire vc71 project? If you have any object files lying around that were build with vc70 you'll have the incorrect autolink references in them.

Wave uses the autolink feature as described in the docs. No misuse here, at least I'm not aware of such.

I am using VC71 IDE, it is trying to link against the VC70 lib (yes? Look at the name) A bjam build of quickstart did not work for me. I deleted VC70 from my box, removed it from everything, and deleted all the Objs generated everywhere and I got things to compile. But I am not linking yet. I am flying today but will be working on this more over the weekend. I plan on re-building a fresh machine, installing the compiler and boost and going at it fresh (unless someone comes up with a better idea :) ) THANKS FOR YOUR HELP.
