Hi Jonathan Thanks very much for your reply. > But this was found in a different path. One that doesn't look the same > as the -I path you used (where did the "Hudson_" part come from?) I'm sorry, that was my error on pasting into the email. I changed the makefile variable that defines the Boost include path from: BOOST_INC = $(OPEN_SOURCE_LIBS)/Boost/rel-1.69.0/ to: BOOST_INC = $(OPEN_SOURCE_LIBS)/Boost/rel-1.69.0 (deleted final '/') and now the compilation is succeeding. I'm not convinced that that was the reason, but I'm happy that the build is now working.
