I'm saying that you should read the entirety of the link I pointed you to. Without information about your configuration at the very least, no one here can make an informed attempt to solve the problem you're seeing. We need at least the output of 'cygcheck -s -r -v' *attached* to your problem report. And since the package you're trying to build can't find Boost, it would be logical to assume that a STC http://cygwin.com/acronyms/#STC wouldn't either or if it does, that would tell us something about the package you're trying. So please consider including a STC as well with the commands you invoked and the results you get. That should make it pretty easy for anyone here to try and help you track down, if the process itself doesn't help you resolve the problem yourself. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

Any advice is appreciatedthanks!! I had the same problem. It seems that boost library include files are not located in /usr/include/boost/, but in /usr/include/boost-1_33_1/boost, or something like that, depending of the cygwin version you use. A workaround can be to make a copy of /usr/include/boost-1_33_1/boost/ directory into /usr/include/. This make the boost directory appear at the right place. Not sure if it is the best solution, but its work for me.

Not sure if it is the best solution, but its work for me. If this is the problem Paulianna is having, then I would say two better solutions would be adding '-I/usr/include/boost-1_33_1' to CFLAGS or creating a symbolic link from '/usr/include/boost' to '/usr/include/boost-1_33_1'. But I agree that your solution would indeed work, though it would be less maintainable and would take up more disk space. -- Larry Hall http://www.rfk.com RFK Partners, Inc.

Would it be easier to add CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/boost-1_33_1 to the './configure' line? Try ./configure --help and see if it has an option to specify the location of boost. It might be --with-boost=/path/to/boost. You'll have to figure out the path on your system. Some packages do have options like this for their dependencies, and if so, it's usually a better solution than adjusting the CPPFLAGS for the entire package. -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/

Greg Chicares wrote Would it be easier to add CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/boost-1_33_1 to the './configure' line? Voila! Thanks Greg (et al) for responding. This did the trick (without having to create symbolic links and/or copy header directories). ./configure CPPFLAGS=-I/usr/include/boost-1_33_1 -- Unsubscribe info: http://cygwin.com/ml/#unsubscribe-simple Problem reports: http://cygwin.com/problems.html Documentation: http://cygwin.com/docs.html FAQ: http://cygwin.com/faq/
