I just tried the same solution below on linux and it's working perfectly. I guess it's a visual studio-boost problem.

Thanks.

Sorry I did some mistakes. The error I am getting is:
LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_date_time-vc100-mt-gd-1_41.lib'

and visual studio is trying to look for "vc100" instead of "vc"

Thanks all for your responses !

I tried James C. Sutherland solution and modified my CMakeList like this:
############################################################
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.6.4 FATAL_ERROR)

include_directories(${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/boost/src)

include( ${CMAKE_SOURCE_DIR}/boost/build/lib/Exports.cmake )
        
add_executable(my_program main.cpp)

target_link_libraries(my_program boost_date_time-mt-shared)
############################################################

it worked but when I try to :
#include "boost/date_time/posix_time/time_parsers.hpp"

I get this error:
libboost_date_time-vc100-mt-gd-1_41.lib

in boost\build\lib\Debug, I have:
libboost_date_time-vc-mt-gd-1_41.lib

Why is visual studio trying to look for "vc" instead of "vc100" ?

for the other proposed solutions, am not sure I understand how to do it correctly because I don't know cmake that well. can you modify my CMakeList and add what you are proposing ?

Thanks.

Why not just let the user decide where they'd like to get boost, and simplify your build system by just using find_package(Boost)?

For example, this is all you need for a simple boost-using app...

find_package(Boost 1.34.0 REQUIRED COMPONENTS filesystem system)
include_directories(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIR})
add_executable(yourapp yourapp.cpp)
target_link_libraries(yourapp ${Boost_LIBRARIES})

Indeed this is the best approach, although it isn't quite that straightforward in all cases since the FindBoost.cmake module functions a bit differently with the CMake installation than it does with the bjam installation. For example, I do something like:

if( BOOST_CMAKE )
  set(Boost_USE_STATIC ON)
find_package( Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS ${boost_comps} NO_MODULE )
else()
  set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
find_package( Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS ${boost_comps} )
endif()

where I define BOOST_CMAKE if I have a cmake-based boost installation.

Hmm, I don't have to do any of that for my Boost-Cmake installation. There is a "trick" to configuring the Boost_CMake build so that it has the same layout as a bjam built boost.
