Perhaps the name I used was confusing.
I am suggesting a way for the user to disable the automatic addition of the
BOOST_${LIBRARY_NAME}_NO_LIB defines.
If that define is always always wanted, (which appears to be the case), then
you can simply disregard my suggestion.
The 'obvious' name for such a variable would be
Boost_DISABLE_NO_AUTOLINKING
but I used a name which avoids double-negation.
Anyway, you know best whether it should be controllable by the user, so I
defer to you on that.
Thanks,
Steve.
