Many thanks for the explanation. In your example of the lower-case version (i.e. the one I should be using) you have a space before the value. In the articles I've come across so far there's been no space - which form is correct, or is the space character seen as white space and ignored? Best wishes.

I'll take your word for it. My main issue here is that I'm a complete novice on Mac, XCode and Boost, so it feels like crossing Europe without a map. I'm trying hard to read articles and try the suggestions I find, but don't have the experience to evaluate the credibility of the articles before giving them a whirl. I tried the flag with -l and -L, just in case it was case-sensitive (it appears not, but you may tell me different).
"-L dir" adds the directory dir to the linker's search path, "-l x" tells it to link to a library libx.dylib or libx.a, so they are completely different. _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
