Hi, I am writing a library using boost_regex. For the unit test part, I am using boost_unit_test_framework and needs to be dynamical linked. Everything worked great on Linux but not the Windows VS 2008.
I used the BoostPro binary installer, got boost components like: boost_regex-vc90-mt-gd-1_47.dll and .lib, also the libboost_regex-vc90-mt-gd-1_47.lib file. After the FIND_PACKAGE(Boost Components ...) I got the boost_*-vc90-mt-gd-1_47.lib version, (no prefix lib), however, when I compile the unit test executable, it has an error fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'libboost_regex-vc90-mt-gd-1_47.lib' If I add its directory C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_47\lib to the linker's "Additional Library Directory" in VS2008 everything went OK. My question is 1. Where this "libboost*" comes from ? all my CMake script are giving boost_* instead of libboost_* libraries. 2. When to set this linker directory so I do not need to add this manually in VS2008. Thanks.
