Hi Kirk Joppy, I didn't use pkg-config. I didn't copy any header or library files of boost. I specified those paths on the IDE, code::blocks. As you might know my process is documented on my wiki. https://github.com/Journeyer/wxboost/wiki/QnA I believe using code::blocks is not a recommended way. I also wanted to know how I can make compiler automatically find the paths of header files and libraries using pkg-config on Windows and even Linux also.

I have a specific question about this:
When you do as you've written, I believe this makes compiled library files in boost_root\stage. In order to use MinGW you must then copy these files to \MinGW\lib, and also copy the headers to a directory called \MinGW\include\boost (since boost headers are supposed to be included as #include "boost\boost_lib". Is this what you did? This method of copying files bypasses pkg-config and the entire autotools utility system, so how do you manage your build system? Do you simply pass flags to your build system to ensure the libs are found? _______________________________________________ Boost-users mailing list Boost-users@lists.boost.org http://lists.boost.org/mailman/listinfo.cgi/boost-users
