Trouble with cmake

Submitted by thinkong on Wed, 08/24/2011 - 05:52

Hi i'm kinda new to cmake and i'm having trouble compileing chaiscript

for now i currently have the following..

boost 1.47 from svn (in e drive.. compiled it.. ran b2, bjam.. )
msvc 9.0 (2008)
chaiscript from github

cmake 2.8.5

and under windows 7

i've set the environment variables
BOOST_INCLUDE
BOOST_LIBRARY
BOOST_ROOT

but everytime i run cmake it just pops out "Can not find boost"

I've tried googling.. and there were no solutions working for me..

i've also tried editing the cmake files as follow

SET(CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH ${CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH} "E:/Personal/src/Boost")
SET(CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH ${CMAKE_LIBRARY_PATH} "E:/Personal/src/Boost/stage/lib")

and..

SET(Boost_ADDITIONAL_VERSIONS "1.47" "1.44" "1.44.0" "1.43" "1.43.0" "1.42" "1.42.0" "1.41")

adding 1.47 to the Boost_Additional_versions..

i really want to try this coz this looks so promising..

thank you in advance..

Boost and CMake on windows

Submitted by lefticus on Thu, 09/01/2011 - 08:11.

Boost and CMake on windows have a finicky relationship, in my opinion. Please try using the official boost downloads for windows from boost consulting first, and start with something in the 1.44 range, something that is already in the list of additional boost versions.

Assuming that works, we can try to sort out why it's not able to find your specific custom build of boost.

Thanks,
Jason
