title: Node-gyp Include and Library Directories with Boost
body: <p>I'm attempting to build a Node C++ addon on my Windows 7 machine that uses some classes from the Boost libraries. However, after running</p>
  
  <pre><code>node-gyp configure
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>successfully, I'm continually assaulted by missing header files when I run</p>
  
  <pre><code>node-gyp build
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>relating to various Boost headers I included.</p>
  
  <p>I tried setting up the include and library directories manually in the Visual Studio projects created by "configure," but to no avail.</p>
  
  <p>How exactly does one go about defining include directories for node-gyp?</p>
  
  <p>[Edit]
  After messing around with node-gyp with little success, I explored into building Node modules through Visual Studio instead and, turns out, after several hours, it's finally up and working. Thanks for the assistance. </p>
