I need to run examples of software that uses boost libraries for VS2008, but the following error occurs: this application can not be started because it was not found boost_date_time-vc80-mt-1_41.dll

I have set the PATH variable:

set PATH=C:\opt\boost-1_41_0\lib;

What's actually causing this error?

Thanks.

  • So, I had downloaded the boost libraries for VS2008, so do not understand the error. – David May 02 '13 at 13:02
  • @David: After downloading the boost libraries you have to install it. Follow the link from code project: http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/11597/Building-Boost-libraries-for-Visual-Studio – Santosh Panda May 02 '13 at 13:10
  • I did this. I used the command line: bjam toolset=msvc-9.0 --build-type=complete stage I used this site: http://www.boost.org/doc/libs/1_43_0/more/getting_started/windows.html#or-build-binaries-from-source – David May 02 '13 at 13:17
