Pulled the latest boost 1.41.0cmake0, compiled and installed. Then I
tried to have my CMake based project find Boost. As usual, this failed.
Using CMake 2.6.4 currently. Started debugging into the FindBoost.cmake
file and here is what I am finding out:
_boost_INCLUDE_SEARCH_DIRS =
/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_41/include;
/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_41;
C:/boost/include;
C:/boost;
/boost;
/sw/local/include
_boost_PATH_SUFFIXES =
boost-1_41;
boost-1_41_0;
Of course boost headers are installed into
/Users/Shared/Toolkits/boost-1_41/include/boost-1.41.0
So this piece of code renders that useless:
# Transform 1.35 => 1_35 and 1.36.0 => 1_36_0
IF(_boost_VER MATCHES "[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+")
STRING(REGEX REPLACE "([0-9]+)\\.([0-9]+)\\.([0-9]+)" "\\1_\\2_\\3"
_boost_BOOSTIFIED_VERSION ${_boost_VER})
ELSEIF(_boost_VER MATCHES "[0-9]+\\.[0-9]+")
STRING(REGEX REPLACE "([0-9]+)\\.([0-9]+)" "\\1_\\2"
_boost_BOOSTIFIED_VERSION ${_boost_VER})
ENDIF()
This was probably for the older versions of boost? Or maybe the ones
built with bjam? This is the first time actually trying to build Boost
with CMake. Not really a great start. If I look back at boost 1.36, 1.39
and 1.40 all built with BJam the include directory follows the
boost-1_XX pattern.
Was the deviation intentional? A bug in the Boost/CMake files? Help
is appreciated.
Try these docs:

YMMV. The underscores were something that bjam did. I'd really like to
make a clean break with the past, I have ideas but nothing too firm yet.
