7)  Install Boost C++ Libraries

If windows, well I'm guessing, so somebody please try these two options and

correct this text please according to which ever is easier:

(optionA) Go to http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=7586

and download boost_1_34_1.zip or later and unzip it so as to put the files 

into C:\Program Files\boost\boost_1_34_1

(optionB) 

Go to http://www.boost-consulting.com/products/free

and download the http://www.boost-consulting.com/boost_1_34_1_setup.exe

file and run it.

If linux, and using a GCC earlier than 4.2, then install the 

"Boost C++ Libraries development files" or similarly named package using your

package manager. Note that if you are using gcc 4.2 or later, there were

incompatibilities that exist between boost 1.34.1 and gcc 4.2. So in this case,

instead of installing boost using your package manager, you should use the svn

HEAD copy which overcomes the gcc 4.2 incompatibility, specifically with

<boost/ptr_container/ptr_vector.hpp>.

CMake will try and find the boost header files and will often fail.  If it

fails, you will have to edit your CMakeCache.txt file manually and set your

Boost_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=/svn/boost-trunk

setting to point to the base of the boost installation directory.  Account

for the fact that the boost #include references use a <boost/..> type prefix.

Example C++ code:  #include <boost/ptr_container/ptr_vector.hpp> and please

notice the leading <boost/ in the path.

So point your Boost_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH= variable to a directory above the

"boost" directory.
