Boost C++ Libraries: Ticket #4079: mingw-built libraries should be linkable with -lboost_foo https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/4079 <p> When building boost with mingw the (static) library files are named libboost_foo-[...].lib. This disallows easy linking against the libraries using the -lboost_foo-[...] command line flag for the linker. </p> <p> I suggest to rename the mingw-built library files to boost_foo-[...].lib or libboost_foo-[...].a to make this work. </p> en-us Boost C++ Libraries /htdocs/site/boost.png https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/4079 Trac 1.4.3 Vladimir Prus Tue, 13 Apr 2010 21:08:36 GMT status changed; resolution set https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/4079#comment:1 https://svn.boost.org/trac10/ticket/4079#comment:1 <ul> <li><strong>status</strong> <span class="trac-field-old">new</span> → <span class="trac-field-new">closed</span> </li> <li><strong>resolution</strong> → <span class="trac-field-new">fixed</span> </li> </ul> <p> Thanks for the report.
