I am new to boost - can you please tell me what are the difference b/w the following variations of the boost lib and which one do I need to link to in which case?

  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-gd-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-gd-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-s-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-mt-sgd-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-s-1_35.lib
  • libboost_unit_test_framework-vc80-sgd-1_35.lib

Well, what I actually after is to understand the whole taxonomy of the _gd, mt, sgd things.
