Use Boost from CMake in vcpkg project

Nov 1, 2021 | 1 min | #cpp #boost #cmake

In this particular case I’m using program_options:

1cmake_minimum_required (VERSION 3.8)
2
3find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS program_options)
4
5add_executable (bt "bt.cpp")
6target_include_directories(${PROJECT_NAME} PRIVATE ${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
7target_link_libraries(bt Boost::program_options)

now #include <boost/program_options.hpp> works.

Have feedback or questions? Feel free to email me.
