Summary0008576: Setting Boost_LIB_PREFIX to "lib" on windows.
DescriptionBoost uses the library naming prefix "lib" for statically linked libraries on Windows. FindBoost.cake sets the prefix correctly only if MSVC is defined. Tested boost 1.38.0 with MinGW, Intel and MSVC90.

Patch (change line 506):

  # Setting some more suffixes for the library
  SET (Boost_LIB_PREFIX "")
  -if ( MSVC AND Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
  +if ( WIN32 AND Boost_USE_STATIC_LIBS )
    SET (Boost_LIB_PREFIX "lib")
  endif()

Thanks for reporting this. I'm extremely sorry about the problem, it's a regression I carelessly introduced in revision 1.25 which unfortunately made it into the 2.6.3 release.

http://public.kitware.com/cgi-bin/viewcvs.cgi/Modules/FindBoost.cmake?root=CMake&r1=1.24&r2=1.25 [^]

The problem has been fixed in CVS. I'll be sure to put out a call for testing prior to the next stable release of FindBoost and be more careful making modifications in the future.
