Cannot find Boost libraries

[klaassr004]

Title says it all, but for more info:

CMake Error at C:/Program Files/CMake/share/cmake-3.7/Modules/FindBoost.cmake:1793 (message): Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.

Boost version: 1.62.0

Boost include path: C:/local/boost_1_62_0

Could not find the following static Boost libraries:

      boost_filesystem
      boost_system
      boost_timer
      boost_thread
      boost_date_time
      boost_chrono
      boost_regex
      boost_serialization

Some (but not all) of the required Boost libraries were found. You may need to install these additional Boost libraries. Alternatively, set BOOST_LIBRARYDIR to the directory containing Boost libraries or BOOST_ROOT to the location of Boost. Call Stack (most recent call first): CMakeLists.txt:54 (find_package)

CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:55 (find_package): By not providing "FindOpenCV.cmake" in CMAKE_MODULE_PATH this project has asked CMake to find a package configuration file provided by "OpenCV", but CMake did not find one.

Could not find a package configuration file provided by "OpenCV" with any of the following names:

OpenCVConfig.cmake
opencv-config.cmake

Add the installation prefix of "OpenCV" to CMAKE_PREFIX_PATH or set "OpenCV_DIR" to a directory containing one of the above files. If "OpenCV" provides a separate development package or SDK, be sure it has been installed.

Hi @klaassr004

Possible diagnosis questions I would ask to myself:

1. Is it built for Visual Studio 2015 x64?
2. Inside your Boost C++ SDK, does it have a ./lib64-msvc-14.0/ folder?
3. In ./CMakeLists.txt, set(BOOST_ROOT "C:/SDK/boost_1_62_0") is set? (I assume it is, and it is set to C:/local/boost_1_62_0)
4. In ./CMakeLists.txt, set(OpenCV_DIR "C:/SDK/opencv-3.1.0/build") is set?

If the answers for 1&2 are No, then external libraries for a favored environment (e.g. msvc-12.0 environment) have to be built manually.

@YutaItoh thanks for your answer. I see what the problem is now, I used to put in the wrong visual studio verson. I kind of misread the VS versions, I had to select Visual studio 14 2015 win64. I feel kind of stupid now. Anyway, thanks again for creating this software and helping me out!

hi @klaassr004 , my pleasure. Please feel free to post any issues when you encounter them while using the software :) FYI, a colleague of mine was able to build it on vc12 after compiling other external libraries, so it's in my to do list to update the external lib setup.
