Hi, Just wondering the difference between library builded with Jam and library builded with specifics target compiler's makefiles. For sample I think about the regex lib under VC6 which gives with nmake -f vc6.mak : boost_regex_vc6_mss.lib boost_regex_vc6_sssd.lib boost_regex_vc6_sssd.pdb boost_regex_vc6_mssd.lib boost_regex_vc6_mssd.pdb boost_regex_vc6_mdid.lib boost_regex_vc6_mdid.dll boost_regex_vc6_mdid.pdb boost_regex_vc6_mdi.lib boost_regex_vc6_mdi.dll boost_regex_vc6_mds.lib boost_regex_vc6_mdsd.lib boost_regex_vc6_mdsd.pdb and Jam that will give us : boost_regex.dll boost_regex.lib boost_regex_debug.dll boost_regex_debug.lib This is because the boost config/*.hpp file does not let me the choice. only the makefiles library seems to work. Thanks in advance. Alex

If you take the makefile route then the right lib will be selected for linking for you, if you use the jam route then you need to define BOOST_REGEX_NO_LIB when building your code, and manually select the right lib to link to (and make darn sure you pick the right one!).

Thanks for your response I did not see it in the flood of boost message. John Maddock <john_maddock@compuserve.com> wrote:> Just wondering the difference between library builded with Jam and
