Re: [CMake] cmake needs 2 runs to find boost
Hi Benedikt, interesting thought, however I wonder why cmake is then capable of deducing the right boost version and include path. Just inside the first error message, I see: (x86)/CMake/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1182 (message): > >Unable to find the requested Boost libraries. > > > >Boost version: 1.57.0 > > > >Boost include path: C:/msys64/mingw64/include > > > >Could not find the following static Boost libraries: > >boost_filesystem > >boost_system strange, isn't it?

Re: [CMake] cmake needs 2 runs to find boost
Hi Peter, as I don't use windows at all, this is just a very wild guess... Could it be that in the second run you actually don't use /CMake/share/cmake-3.2/Modules/FindBoost.cmake but boost-config.cmake, which it now finds in the cached environment of the first run? This assumes of course that you built boost w/ CMake and not bjam...

Re: [CMake] cmake needs 2 runs to find boost
Hi to all,
ok, I tried the attached minimal CMakeLists.txt again and found out that it
fails in the way I described only with the "MSYS Makefiles" generator. If I
use the same CMakeLists.txt without a custom generator (so MSVS is the default
IIRC), the libraries are found alright!
Any ideas?
Best,
Peter

[CMake] cmake needs 2 runs to find boost
Hi to all,
I tested this with cmake 3.2.2 and 3.3.2 and still get the same problem.
I'd like to use boost with gcc on windows 7 64bit. I installed boost and gcc
with msys2 as I cannot use MSVC for the actual project I am looking into for
this.
the funny thing, if I use the attached CMakeLists.txt on the machine and call:
```
$ cmake -G "MSYS Makefiles" -DBOOST_ROOT=C:/msys64/mingw64 -
DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR==C:/msys64/mingw64/lib ..

it proofes really hard to find Boost in the first place.
Any ideas?
