CMake link of a non-existent file failed in VS 2022 #385
Description
Introduction
I'm using this module to create some thread-safe classes using mutex and locks. Since I don't use all of the boost libraries, I run this command:
./b2 --build-type=minimal --with-thread --with-atomic variant=debug threading=multi link=shared runtime-link=shared
The result is these files:

I use CMake in my project, so I use these instructions:
if(PROJECT_DEBUG)
set(Boost_DEBUG ON)
set(Boost_USE_DEBUG_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_DEBUG_RUNTIME ON )
else()
set(Boost_USE_RELEASE_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_DEBUG_RUNTIME OFF)
endif()
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS OFF) #EDIT: was OFF, not ON
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_RUNTIME OFF)
find_package(Boost 1.78 REQUIRED COMPONENTS thread)
include_directories(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
link_directories(${Boost_LIBRARIES})Problem
The project configuration is successful, however, in a very strange way, the LINK complains that the following file libboost_thread-vc143-mt-gd-x64-1_78.lib could not be opened. Even if there is no such file the problem persists, how can I solve it? Need a compiler definition? Change find_package options? Or the command of b2?
