Has anyone tried to do this and been successful? Anyone also had problem using vcpkg, boost and old VS projects?\r\n\r\nI'm simply using the boost::filesystem and can successfully link to a set of static boost libraries that I've built and maintain myself.\r\n\r\nFor reference and if anyone finds this useful, to link to the static libs I copied in the following in my vs project file under :\r\n\r\n<VcpkgTriplet>x86-windows-static</VcpkgTriplet>\r\n<VcpkgEnabled>true</VcpkgEnabled>\r\nbut also had to change the code generation setting \"Runtime Library\" from Multi-threaded Debug DLL /MDd to Multii-threaded Debug /MTd"}}
