RE: Steem Mining in Microsoft Windows : A Builder's Guide (Part 1)
Thanks for making this guide! I have one problem though, when I get to actually compiling Steem.. I just cannot make it find the boost headers:
**
CMake Error at libraries/fc/CMakeModules/FindBoost.cmake:1129 (message):
Unable to find the requested Boost libraries.
Unable to find the Boost header files. Please set BOOST_ROOT to the root
directory containing Boost or BOOST_INCLUDEDIR to the directory containing
Boost's headers.
Call Stack (most recent call first):
libraries/fc/CMakeLists.txt:119 (FIND_PACKAGE)
**
I compiled boost as above and put its build dir as "D:\Build\boost\boost_release".
Ive tried numerous folders and env variables (like Boost_Include_dir) and none of them ever past the find Boost check. What exactly is meant to be in the folder specified as "BOOST_ROOT"?
thanks again!
Any tips? I've even tried downloading pre-built Boost Libs and it still cannot find boost when compiling Steem. It dies at the cmake. Ive set BOOST_ROOT to various directories in the structure, thinking now this isnt a "cant find problem" but something else??
Also, in the section above about your changes to the Steem source and Git Hub.. you seem to be missing a step as you just list the URL. Assume its a Git checkout command thats missing?
