My issue is in the context of using Boost: it seems that the autolink code in Boost is not working even if I use clang++ or clang-cl targeting Windows (using msvc's runtime, linker etc.). I suspect that this case is not allowed by the option macros that activate autolink on windows when msvc/cl is used. My suspicion comes from the fact that indeed clang does have autolink support in that situation, but it still doesn't find the libraries. I didn't find documentation for that particular case, so I am looking for a confirmation that Boost does not support that case. Joël
