HDK with the CGAL library boost dependency. Oct. 25, 2019, 9:41 a.m.

I think I have it narrowed down to gmp libraries, they are prebuilt in the cgal library. Needs further investigation.

HDK with the CGAL library boost dependency. Oct. 22, 2019, 10:41 p.m.

So I'm attempting to write a hdk sop plugin that uses the cgal library. CGAL requires boost. I downloaded and linked boost to my visual studio project that was built from the cmake file.

I understand that there is hboost, but cgal requires boost. The cmake files go haywire if I point it to houdini's boost.

What I suspect is the boost libraries are precompiled. Once I use a boost object that a CGAL library needs, the plugin wont load as it wasn't compiled for houdini.

I am attempting to build boost from source with VS 2019 toolset 141

I'm on Windows 10 and H17.5.

Any insight would be appreciated.
Thank you
