[CMake] CMake 3.6 and OSX

Wed Nov 2 01:01:57 EDT 2016

Thanks for your help.  I've managed to get past the original problem by 
editing FindBoost so that it checks for version 1.62.  But I'm done yet! 
Now I'm getting

CMake Error at 
/Applications/CMake.app/Contents/share/cmake-3.6/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1767 
(message):
   Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

   Boost version: 1.62.0

   Boost include path: /Users/robertramey/WorkingProjects/modular-boost

   Could not find the following static Boost libraries:

           boost_system
           boost_filesystem

   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):
   CMakeLists.txt:113 (find_package)

Boost_FOUND is 0
Boost NOT Found!

The last messages is from my CMakelists.txt file which verifies that the 
variable Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS is indeed set to true.

Here is what I'm seeing:

a) it looks like CMake is looking for boost_filesystem rather than 
libboost as I expect. (same for system).

b) even if I tweak findBoost to force the system to look for libboost... 
it still fails

b) If I follow the suggestion and set BOOST_ROOT to the boost root, it 
still doesn't work.  The BOOST_ROOT variable is discarded when I invoke 
"Configure"

So again, any suggestions you can offer will be appreciated.
