Setting up boost filesystem
- by brit
I've been having serious problems trying to set up boost. I must have installed and uninstalled the libraries a dozen times. In my most recent attempt, I followed these instructions:
Download the zip and unzip it.
Get the prebuilt jam executable and unzip it. Put that directory in your path.
(Edit Path by using Control Panel...System..Advanced....Environemnt Variables)
Open Visual Studio command prompt. Browse to boost directory.
Run: bjam "-sTOOLS=vc-8_0" install
The main reason I'm trying to use boost is for boost/filesystem yet nothing is working. I know this question has been asked before, but it only resulted in more errors..
Please Help!
