build with boost 1_70

[agelosc]

is it possible to build dev with boost 1_70 as of USD v20.05 or am I trying in vain?

I'm getting this output when trying to build:

-- Selecting Windows SDK version 10.0.17763.0 to target Windows 10.0.18362.

Thank you.

Hi @agelosc ,

Unfortunately we are not building against Boost 1.70 yet, and we also do not use Windows, so you're in unfamiliar territory.

Based on that error, it looks like maybe you have dynamic Boost libs installed, but your usd-qt build is specifically looking for static libs? That's kind of a shot in the dark though...

I'll try and build against USD 20.02 which if I remember correctly uses boost 1_65_1, not sure if windows is out of the question but I'll give it a go. Thanks for your time, I'm closing this question.

Hi，i have the same issue with python2.7.15, usd20.11, windows. Did you solve the problem using USD 20.02?

Have you tried setting Boost_NO_BOOST_CMAKE=ON?
