boost thread linker issues

Alright, been fighting and scouring the internet for this for awhile now and am at a loss. I'm pretty new at all this, but I'm learning. Here's the deal.

I am using Code::Blocks IDE with default mingw32 g++ compiler.
I downloaded and compiled boost 1.48 as detailed here: http://wiki.codeblocks.org/index.php...indowsQuickRef (I used --build-type=complete)

I have used Code::Blocks to link to all of the .a files in the output "lib" folder (including "libboost_thread-mgw46-mt-1_48.a" and "libboost_thread-mgw46-mt-d-1_48.a".)

I am trying to compile this code from: http://antonym.org/2009/05/threading...g-threads.html

Code:

//#define BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB #include <iostream> #include <boost/thread.hpp> #include <boost/date_time.hpp> void workerFunc() { boost::posix_time::seconds workTime(3); std::cout << "Worker: running" << std::endl; // Pretend to do something useful... boost::this_thread::sleep(workTime); std::cout << "Worker: finished" << std::endl; } int main(int argc, char* argv[]) { std::cout << "main: startup" << std::endl; boost::thread workerThread(workerFunc); workerFunc(); std::cout << "main: waiting for thread" << std::endl; workerThread.join(); std::cout << "main: done" << std::endl; return 0; }

When I try to compile I get a bunch of errors like :
undefined reference to `_imp___ZN5boost6thread4joinEv'
undefined reference to `_imp___ZN5boost6threadD1Ev'
undefined reference to `_imp___ZN5boost6threadD1Ev'

It works fine when I comment out the lines dealing with boost threading but leave the line that deals with boost time.

If I define BOOST_THREAD_USE_LIB (to tell the library to link statically like I would like) I get errors like these:
undefined reference to `boost::thread::join()'
undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()'
undefined reference to `boost::thread::~thread()'

Again I am very new and I have much to learn. I feel like I have enough information here to figure out what the problem is, but unfortunately it is beyond my grasp. I may just need to know more about linking if anyone is aware of any good beginner resources on the subject feel free to give me a heads up I feel that my knowledge is particularly weak in this area.

Thanks in advance for any insight!

On a side note: If any mods happen upon this thread, while reading the "read before posting" post, I discovered a couple of ironic errors in the encouragement for proper grammar. Grammar is spelled "grammer" in the post. Additionally "response" should be "respond". This is trivial but I thought someone might care.
