hi John You sould be able to build the binaries
2013/8/30 John Emmas
A few months ago I downloaded 'boost_1_54_0.zip' which I probably obtained from Sourceforge:-
http://sourceforge.net/**projects/boost/files/boost/1.**54.0/http://sourceforge.net/projects/boost/files/boost/1.54.0/
I'm using libboost with Visual C++ 8 and up to now the only things I've needed from it are 'boost::regex' and 'boost::shared_ptr'. However I'm now building a 3rd party library which seems to want to link to the above library (libboost_thread-vc80-mt-1_54.**lib). I'm not sure whether it's a static library or the symbols library for a DLL. Either way, the zip file I downloaded doesn't seem to contain it (nor any other libs or DLLs AFAICT).
Q1) Is there some other web site I need to visit in order to get the pre-built binaries?
Q2) I know from past experience that pre-built boost binaries sometimes require quite obscure versions of the MSVC runtime. That was the case with boost::regex so after a bit of advice from this mailing list, I ended up making a VC project and building it myself. I don't mind doing the same thing for boost::thread - but I wondered if there was already a suitable project available somewhere? I don't want to re-invent the wheel if a VC project already exists! Thanks.
