Cmake cannot find Boost libraries

Question

I am new to Cmake and boost libraries in C++. I am working on a project that needs boost and Cmake. I am using Cmake version 2.8.11, MS Visual Studio 2013 and Boost 1.54.0.

Answer 1

Boost 1.54.0 cannot be built with VS2013 without applying some patches. See also here How do I build boost with new Visual Studio 2013 preview?

If you build it correctly, everything else should work.
