I just tried the advise I was given, and the result was the following
C:\local\workspace\RobWork\build\release>cmake -G "Visual Studio 9 2008"
-DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release ../..
-- RobWork version 0.4.0
-- Build configuration: Release
-- No Default.cmake file loaded, using default settings from
config.cmake.template
CMake Warning (dev) at CMakeLists.txt:20 (INCLUDE):
Policy CMP0011 is not set: Included scripts do automatic cmake_policy PUSH
and POP. Run "cmake --help-policy CMP0011" for policy details. Use the
cmake_policy command to set the policy and suppress this warning.
The included script
C:/local/workspace/RobWork/build/ProjectSetup.cmake
affects policy settings. CMake is implying the NO_POLICY_SCOPE option for
compatibility, so the effects are applied to the including context.
This warning is for project developers. Use -Wno-dev to suppress it.
-- RobWork ROOT dir: C:/local/workspace/RobWork
CMake Error at C:/Programmer/CMake
2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:879 (message):
Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.
Boost version: 1.39.0
Boost include path: C:/local/boost/include/boost-1_39
The following Boost libraries could not be found:
boost_thread
No Boost libraries were found. You may need to set Boost_LIBRARYDIR to
the
directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of
Boost.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
build/depends.cmake:8 (FIND_PACKAGE)
build/RobWorkSetup.cmake:32 (INCLUDE)
CMakeLists.txt:36 (INCLUDE)
When I was building boost this time, I did ran the following commands:
- "C:\Downloads\boost_1_39_0>bjam.exe --prefix=C:\local\boost -toolset=msvs
define="_SECURE_SCL=0" define="_HAS_ITERATOR_DEBUGGING=0" -d+2"
- "C:\Downloads\boost_1_39_0>bjam.exe install --prefix=C:\local\boost"
I removed all the old enviromental variables for boost and created the
following variable
- BOOST_ROOT = C:\local\boost
In "C:\local\boost\lib" I have
- libboost_thread-vc90-mt.lib
- libboost_thread-vc90-mt-gd-1_39.lib
- libboost_thread-vc90-mt-gd.lib
In "C:\local\boost\include\boost-1_39" I have
- A folder named "boost", but no subfolder or file called "boost_thread"
I must missing some variable or setting, but I can't figure out what...
