undefined reference to `boost::test_tools::tt_detail::message_impl and supposed solution

[Stoytcho Stoev]

Hi there,

I got this message (and may others of similar sort ) trying to compile $QuantLib_root/test-suite on
uname -a
Linux nano3 2.6.9-34.EL #1 Wed Mar 8 00:07:35 CST 2006 i686 i686 i386 GNU/Linux

boost library is installed with the default configs ( ./configure ; make; make install ) in /usr/local/lib
my $LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/usr/local/lib

The problem disappears when I change
BOOST_UNIT_TEST_LIB = boost_unit_test_framework-gcc
in $QuantLib_root/test-suite/Makefile
with
BOOST_UNIT_TEST_LIB = boost_unit_test_framework

Hope this will be in help to someone.

Stoytcho

Strange. For BOOST_UNIT_TEST_LIB to be defined as  
boost_unit_test_framework-gcc, configure must have found and  
successfully linked such a library. Are you sure you don't have  
multiple Boost versions lying around?

Later,
