I am trying to install mlpack in vs2013. msvc2013 is not compatible, so I am using Intel C++ compiler XE 14.0. However, Intel compiler is not finding the boost libraries.

Using only MSVC - 

C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\build> cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" ....
-DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR:PATH="C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\packages\boost.1.63.0.0\lib\native\include" 
-DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR:PATH="C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\packages\boost_libs" ..

Output - 

....
Found the following Boost libraries:
  program_options
  unit_test_framework
  serialization
....

Using MSVC and Intel toolkit - 

C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\build> cmake -G "Visual Studio 12 2013 Win64" -T"Intel C++ compiler XE 14.0" ....
-DBOOST_INCLUDEDIR:PATH="C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\packages\boost.1.63.0.0\lib\native\include" 
-DBOOST_LIBRARYDIR:PATH="C:\projects\mlpack-2.1.1\packages\boost_libs" ..

Output - 

Could not find the following Boost libraries:
      boost_program_options
      boost_unit_test_framework
      boost_serialization

Why is the intel unable to find? I installed the boost libraries using NuGet package manager. Should I use some other boost libs for intel compiler?

  • I see the same `BOOST_LIBRARYDIR` path in both cases. Does this directory contain both sets of binaries? The libraries are identified by a toolset tag, and CMake searches for a [different tag depending on the compiler](https://github.com/Kitware/CMake/blob/master/Modules/FindBoost.cmake#L418). – Dan Mašek Mar 01 '17 at 18:09

Currently, Boost NuGet packages do not have binaries for Intel compiler. Boost NuGet package contains binaries from the Prebuilt windows binaries only. In the future, I'm happy to add new binaries as soon as they are available to download from some trusted resource.
