Well, that's not a really Boost.Build question, I think. 'man gcc'
will probably tell what variable can be used to specify include
paths, it's C_INCLUDE_PATH and CPP_INCLUDE_PATH for me.

OK, I will look into this. But could you tell me how to make the following work:

From the setup tutorial on the boost site, section 6.2

$ c++ -I /Users/khinester/Installed/include/boost-1_38 example5.cpp -o example6 /Users/khinester/downloads/boost_1_38_0/libs/regex/build/gcc/libboost_regex-gcc-d-1_38.a

$ ./example6 < jayne.txt 
Will Success Spoil Rock Hunter?

So far so good.

But when I try to setup Wt, using the http://www.webtoolkit.eu/wt/wiki/index.php/Installing_Wt_on_Mac_OS_X_Leopard


$ cd ~/sandboxes/wt/
$ rm -rf build
$ mkdir build
$ cd build
$ cmake -DBOOST_DIR=/Users/khinester/Installed/include ../
..
** Error finding Wt required library: 
** Could not find a boost installation in /Users/khinester/Installed/include.
** It may be necessary to set appropriate values for the
   variables BOOST_DIR, BOOST_COMPILER, and BOOST_VERSION
CMake Error at src/CMakeLists.txt:10 (MESSAGE):
  ** Wt requires the following C++ boost libraries: boost_date_time,
  boost_regex, and boost_program_options, boost_signals, and optionally
  boost_thread


CMake Error: The following variables are used in this project, but they are set to NOTFOUND.
Please set them or make sure they are set and tested correctly in the CMake files:
BOOST_INCLUDE_DIRS
   used as include directory in directory /Users/khinester/sandboxes/wt
   used as include directory in directory /Users/khinester/sandboxes/wt/src
   used as include directory in directory /Users/khinester/sandboxes/wt/examples
   used as include directory in directory /Users/khinester/sandboxes/wt/src/web
   used as include directory in directory /Users/khinester/sandboxes/wt/src/Wt

-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

I know this post is more to do with setting up Wt rather than boost, but for some reason or another I cannot get Wt to find the BOOST_DIR

Any advise much appreciated.

Norman
