Boost Build Notes

Boost will be a project in the CMake build, but until then, the SCIRun Qt prototype requires Boost 1.49 or greater.

Linux

Make sure that Python and bzip2 development libraries are installed.

Local Boost 1.50.0 build on CIBC3 (for example, the local build was installed in /home/sci/ayla/devel/cibc3/boost)

 ./bootstrap.sh --prefix=/home/sci/ayla/devel/cibc3/boost
 ./b2 -d2 --prefix=/home/sci/ayla/devel/cibc3/boost variant=release link=static threading=multi cxxflags="-fPIC" cflags="-fPIC" install

If the install path is in a system directory, run the b2 install command with sudo.

When configuring the CMake project for the prototype, change Boost_INCLUDE_DIR to the Boost install directory include location (in this case, /home/sci/ayla/devel/cibc3/boost/include), and configure again. The Boost library should then be populated with the correct libraries from the local Boost install directory.
