Hi,

I ran the configuration again. Now files highlighted in Red became normal.

Hi, thanks. 

I set BOOST_ROOT as you instructed. Now configuration did not give any error.

But there are some files appearing in red on the GUI screen.

HI,

I can find boot installed in c:\program files\boost\boost_1_46_1.

Under this there is a boost subdirectory.

Where should i include Boost_INCLUDE_DIR?

What do you mean by CMake Files?

Brain.

This error is rather explicit actually. You need to have Boost installed, and
Boost_INCLUDE_DIR must be filled with something like C:/CGAL/boost_1_46 (ie
the directory where you can find the ./Boost subdirecty that contains Boost
headers).

You will also have to fill CMake variables about Boost precompiled libraries.
As said in the installation manual of CGAL, the easiest way is to remove all
Boost_* variables from the CMake cache¹, and add² a variable BOOST_ROOT, of
type "Path", that points to C:/CGAL/boost_1_46 (or the location where you
installed Boost header and precompiled libraries), and reclick on configure.
With BOOST_ROOT, CMake will be able to find the headers and the libraries
automatically.

¹) in the CMake GUI, selected them, and click on the "Remove entry" button.
²) With the button "Add entry" of course.
