fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: 'boost/config.hpp': No such file or directory

[David Palmer-2]

I have been trying to get QuantLib to work and am having trouble.

I have read many posts and tried a variety of fixes to no avail.

Microsoft Visual C++ .NET   69586-335-0000007-18048

Windows XP Professional service pack 2

Boost C:\boost (boost_1_33_0)
QuantLib C:\QuantLib-0.3.11

(SYSTEM VARIABLES)

PATH %SystemRoot%\system32;%SystemRoot%;%SystemRoot%\System32
\Wbem;C:\texmf\miktex\bin;C:\ruby\bin;C:\blp\API;C:\blp\API\dde;C:\PROGRAM

INCLUDE C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\SDK\v1.1
\include\;C:\WATCOM\H;C:\WATCOM\H\NT;C:\boost

Under System/Options/VC++ Directories Include C:\boost and C:\QuantLib-0.3.11
Under Project Additional C:\boost

I have made both the directories boost and quantlib read / writable.

I have successfully built boost VC7_1 install using BJAM.

All to no avail.

What really bakes my noodle is that if I highlight the boost/config.hpp file
in the IDE and right click choose "open document" it tells me the file is not
found...

The dialog also shows it is looking in the path C:\boost and yes the file is
there...

So after doing my due dilligence and checking MSDN and the Boost and Quantlib
user groups, I must admit defeat. Any suggestions?

The last entry should be C:\Boost\include\boost-1_33

Same here. The additional include directory must be
C:\Boost\include\boost-1_33, i.e., the one that contains
boost/config.hpp directly.

Later,
