Hi,
Our project uses boost on Windows. Except thread library, all other library
need to be linked statically. To achieve this, what I did is this
ADD_DEFINITIONS(-D BOOST_THREAD_DYN_DLL)
set(Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS ON)
set(Boost_USE_MULTITHREADED ON)
find_package( Boost COMPONENTS thread system date_time regex filesystem
chrono)
As per boost documentation, in windows the static boost libraries are
started with the name "libboost*.lib" and the import libraries of dlls
start with "boost*".
If I turn ON or OFF "Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS", the value returned by
GET_FILENAME_COMPONENT(BFILESYS ${Boost_FILESYSTEM_LIBRARY_RELEASE} NAME_WE)
is always "C:/Program
Files/boost_1_53_0/stage/lib/libboost_filesystem-vc100-mt-1_53.lib"
I was expecting that, if the Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS is ON, the output to be
"*lib*boost_filesystem-vc100-mt-1_53.lib" and if the Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS
is OFF, the output to be "boost_filesystem-vc100-mt-1_53.lib".
Is anything going wrong here? Can anybody clarify this?
Thanks,
Lloyd
