Tengo dos archivos simples:

runner.cpp:

#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Main
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

y test1.cpp:

#define BOOST_TEST_DYN_LINK
#ifdef STAND_ALONE
#   define BOOST_TEST_MODULE Main
#endif
#include <boost/test/unit_test.hpp>

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE( Foo)

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_CASE( TestSomething )
{
    BOOST_CHECK( true );
}

BOOST_AUTO_TEST_SUITE_END()

Para compilar, estoy usando:

$ g++ -I/e/code/boost_1_52_0 -o runner -lboost_unit_test_framework runner.cpp test1.cpp

Obtuve el siguiente error:

Estoy usando g ++ 4.7.2 en MinGW, con boost 1.52.0.

Obtengo los mismos errores cuando solo intento compilartest1.cpp - Excepto la de "definición principal múltiple".

Revisé la documentación oficial durante bastante tiempo, pero es escasa en detalles sobre las opciones de enlace. Cuando compilé las boosts libs, además deunit_test_framework, Tambien tengoprg_exec_monitor ytest_exec_monitor; Tal vez debería vincular estos de alguna manera? Intenté muchas combinaciones, pero todas resultaron en algún tipo de error del enlazador de referencia no definido.
