Title: Adding a library location (boost) to global variable?
Post by: Krisando on September 22, 2010, 12:02:45 pm
Hey, i've been trying to get boost libraries to work under Codeblocks. Unfortunately pretty much everything is designed to work seamlessly with Visual Studio, and I have had no such luck with the Codeblocks guide.

The boost library location is the folder below:
C:\Downloads\boost_1_44_0

And this is how I setup the global variables, trying to follow the unclear instructions:

<boost/...>
boost just isn't recognized as a location, i'm really not sure what is meant to link where. (If that makes sense)

Thanks :shock:

Yeah, it does not make alot of sense.

I've been trying that with no luck. It just wont recognize boost's location.

It looks like you did NOT build boost for your compiler.

Try using the "C:\Downloads\boost_1_44_0" for both the include and base values.
