Question

i builded my boost library with bjam, and then moved all the .a files into c:\Server\libs\boost_1_46_0\lib

if i want to compile my program there is some error:

the compile command

g++ -Ic:\Server\libs\boost_1_46_0\ -Lc:\Server\libs\boost_1_46_0\lib\ -lboost_thread-mgw45-mt-1_46 -o try1 try1.cpp

the errors

C:\Users\FEHERG~1\AppData\Local\Temp\ccB46To7.o:try1.cpp:(.text+0xe9): undefined

can anybody help me what is the problem in this problem?

i followed this tutorial: http://antonym.org/2009/05/threading-with-boost—part-i-creating-threads.html

so this is the source: http://pastebin.com/YqCPLNwU

UPDATE:

i think the error is not lining the library, the error is in the library.
i built it with bjam with toolchain=gcc multithread options.

UPDATE

here is the objdump http://pastebin.com/4fpqYb7d

UPDATE

i found that the problem is that the linker wants to link with dynamic linking or something like this.

Code Blocks, MinGW, Boost, and static linking issues

there “Jack Kelly” says that i need to add #define BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB at the beginning of my source file. but this not helps to me. how can i link a library statically? (the -static not helped as well)

Answer 1

Move the -lboost_thread-mgw45-mt-1_46 option to the end of the command line (after try1.cpp). (From chat.)
