I tried to find out that gd means in boost library name and I only found two other people looking for the same thing.

I suppose it should be a place where this is clearly documented and I would like to find it.

• mt - multitheaded, get it with bjam threading=multi
• s - bjam runtime-link=static
• g - using debug versions of the standard and runtime support libraries. what bjam switch???
• d - debug bjam variant=debug

Update

How do I control what bjam switches controls the above variants? In fact the only one that I wasn't able to identify is the g.
