[cgal-discuss] Installation problems
Hi,
I use XP and
cygwin and I fought for days with the issue of cmake not finding boost
thread.
It finally worked when I hacked the following into
FindBoost.cmake, i.e. gave him the path
manually.
...
SET(Boost_${UPPERCOMPONENT}_LIBRARY
/usr/local/lib/libboost_thread-gcc34-mt-1_38.a)
message("${Boost_${UPPERCOMPONENT}_LIBRARY}\n")
message("${Boost_${UPPERCOMPONENT}_LIBRARY_RELEASE}\n")
message("${Boost_${UPPERCOMPONENT}_LIBRARY_DEBUG}\n")
_Boost_ADJUST_LIB_VARS(${UPPERCOMPONENT})
IF(
Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
SET(CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES
${_boost_ORIG_CMAKE_FIND_LIBRARY_SUFFIXES})
ENDIF(
Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
ENDFOREACH(COMPONENT)
#
------------------------------------------------------------------------
#
End finding boost libraries

You
could search the archive for "findboost" of "setupboost" to find some other
threads about similar issues:

The boost version is 1.39.0, cmake is 2.6.4 and cgal is 3.4. Any ideas what
