Boost C++ Set up question

Hi all,

I'm trying to get Boost set up and I'm using this guide: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_46_1/more/getting_started/windows.html#get-boost.

I installed the libs using the BoostPro computing installer and am now trying to follow the instructions listed in section 4.1. Everything is smooth up until I compile, when I get an unresolved external symbol error, copied below.

Error 1 error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol _WinMain@16 referenced in function ___tmainCRTStartup C:\Users\Annirudh\Documents\Visual Studio 2010\Projects\example\example\MSVCRTD.lib(crtexew.obj) example

How do I go about fixing this?

Thanks in advance!!

Are you using an empty project?
The guide recommended using a Win32 console application, but using an empty project worked.

Thanks!
