Hi all!

Soon i tried to build a boost::test example in MinGW32, which required a -lboost_unit_test_framework-mgw46-mt-1_47 link option.
I tried setting it in Build methods - Release link options, but had no luck. Having in mind a GCC "bugfeature" - symbols from object files are being resolved using only libs, passed after this file, i found these lines:

uppsrc/ide/Builders/GccBuilder.cpp - GccBuilder::Link().

//                      lnk << " -Wl,--gc-sections,-O,2 ";
                        if (!HasFlag("OSX11"))
                          lnk << " -Wl,-O,2 "; // CXL 05/11/14 --gc-sections causing trouble on ubuntu
                        lnk << linkoptions;

here linkoptions variable contains my link options.
I advice you to move "lnk << linkoptions;" before "PutConsole("Linking...");", with adding a space in preceding string " -Wl,--end-group ".

It worked for me.
