Done. I've also retained only one of the two NEEDLIBS (all libs appeared twice in the link-line). Is that OK ? This would only be necessary in case there would be circulare dependencies and I'm sure a well designed project like boost does not suffer from circular dependencies ;) toon _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
