Thanks, I tried "find_package" and it works now. I had tried "find_package" earlier and did not work. Probably, because I had to set the BOOST_LIBRARYDIR correctly as it is a non-standard one in my environment. So, adding these two commands makes boost work: set (BOOST_LIBRARYDIR "C:/Program Files/boost1.35.0/lib_vc90") find_package( Boost 1.35.0 COMPONENTS system) However, do you know the use of "Boost_FIND_COMPONENTS" command. There is no documentation for it at present. Is it a deprecated command?
