[odb-users] Error building - libodb-boost-1.5.0 with VC++

[Dan Coffey]

Hi Boris,

Thanks for you patience.  I go back and try you suggestion later.

For now I've gone back to building using mingw and MinGW Shell.
Once I got the -I and -L paths correct, I was able to make and install 
libodb, libodb-boost libodb-qt and libodb-mysql lib's without any problems.

Dan
