There is on rather hackish way to use static linkage. We simply setup three .cpp-files that included the .cpp-files from out of the boost sourcetree. Works fine for 1.28 and 1.29 and only required one conditional for 1.30. If there is interest, I can post these files here (I'm not at work atm...). hth Ulrich Eckhardt _______________________________________________ Unsubscribe & other changes: http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost
