Hi,
Recently, I also meet similar problem and had troubles with figure
out what Boost library requires linking and what is headers-based.
Following table may help in this:
http://www.boost.org/more/getting_started.html#auto-linkbut some additional building details in per-library docs
would be much more helpful
So, I'd like to vote for Minkoo's suggestion.
Hmm, or it's already documented but we've not found it yet?
Cheers
