.. warning::
A common mistake when building and linking against libtorrent is
to build with one set of configuration options (#defines) and
link against it using a different set of configuration options. Since
libtorrent has some code in header files, that code will not be
compatible with the built library if they see different configurations.
Always make sure that the same TORRENT_* macros are defined when you
link against libtorrent as when you build it.
Boost-build supports propagating configuration options to dependencies.
When building using the makefiles, this is handled by setting the
configuration options in the pkg-config file. Always use pkg-config
when linking against libtorrent.
