FindBoost.cmake 5.2 KiB

# This file is NOT an original FindBoost.cmake module provided by KitWare!
# It's a simplified version whose only purpose is to be used in a software
# library lib4neuro and it does NOT provide a full funcionality of the original,
# as it only works with the system-layout-named libraries (e.g. libboost_system.so).
# Optional user-defined variables
# (can be passed directly to CMake or exported as environmental variables
# * BOOST_LIBRARYDIR - The path to the folder containing Boost libraries
# * BOOST_INCLUDEDIR - The path to the folder containing Boost header files
# "External" used variables
# * DEPENDENCIES_LINK_TYPE - TODO
# "Output" variables set after running this script
# * Boost_FOUND - TODO
# * Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS - TODO
# * Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS - TODO
# * Boost_LIBRARIES - TODO
# Module usage
