[Boost-cmake] Building boost "with an uninstalled build" and linking to boost libs

I am currently trying the boost "With an uninstalled build" variety: # Boost Related SET( BOOST_LIB_INSTALL_DIR ${BUILD_DIR}/ouput/lib CACHE STRING "" FORCE ) SET( BOOST_EXPORTS_INSTALL_DIR ${BUILD_DIR}/ouput/lib CACHE STRING "" FORCE ) SET( BOOST_INCLUDE_INSTALL_DIR ${BUILD_DIR}/ouput/include CA

I was snooping around in FindBoost.cmake and found IF (Boost_${basename}_LIBRARY_DEBUG AND Boost_${basename}_LIBRARY_RELEASE) # if the generator supports configuration types then set # optimized and debug libraries, or if the CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE has a value IF (CMAKE_CONFIGURATIO

In BoostConfig.cmake I had to comment out the following (from a previous post on the CMake users mailing list): # Clear out the built-in C++ compiler and link flags for each of the # configurations. #~ set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG "" CACHE INTERNAL "Unused by Boost") #~ set(CMAKE_SHARED_LINKER_FLAGS

I too had some patches that help boost play nice with multiple third party libraries using the "With boost source in a subdirectory of your source" as explained in http://sodium.resophonic.com/boost-cmake/current-docs/exported_targets.htmlfor windows targets testing on XP, Windows Server 2008 x64
