CGAL users discussion list

[Austin Bingham <>]

Hi all,

I've been trying to build CGAL on windows, and I'm having trouble
getting the CGAL build system to link to the correct boost.thread
library. The boost I need to link against is built with support for
debug python (i.e. boost.python is linked to a debug version of
libpython), and this means that my debug boost libraries have the suffix
my-gyd instead of mt-gd. 

Try as I might, I can seem to convince the build to link to that
library. After fiddling with FindBoost.cmake, the cmake GUI seemed to
indicate that it was seeing the correct boost.thread lib. However, when
I subsequently compile CGAL and then link to it, I find that CGAL seems
to still be linked to the wrong boost.thread (which *does* exist on my
system, but which I have told CGAL not to use.)

So, does anyone have any idea how I can ensure that CGAL will link with
the right boost.thread? This is driving me a little crazy, but I figure
there must be an answer. Thanks in advance.

Austin
