AFAIK, these two macros are used to enable auto_link.hpp to generate #pragma comment(lib, name) so that the linker can automatically link the used libraries, which should only works on windows. But on linux, why do I still need to define at least one of the two macros, while the used libraries must also be specified? Or how do these two macros work on linux?
The macros:
indicate that the code will be linked against a dynamically loaded ( so
or dll
) boost
library.
Since boost
libraries on linux
are normally built as dynamically loaded libraries it is necessary to define one of the macros above to link the relevant boost
libraries.
Boost
libraries on Windows
are normally built as statically linked libraries. However, if the relevant boost
libraries have been built as dynamically loaded libraries then the macros are also required when building on Windows
.
