title: Adding Boost Library to a C++ project in Windows Eclipse
body: <p>I recently installed the Boost Library on Windows using the installer, I'm trying to link to the library in Eclipse but am not having any luck.  I tried going through Project Properties -> C/C++ Build -> Settings -> MinGW C++ Linker -> Libraries and add the reference "boost_filesystem" according to this website: <a href="http://www.ferdychristant.com/blog//archive/DOMM-76JN6N" rel="nofollow noreferrer">http://www.ferdychristant.com/blog//archive/DOMM-76JN6N</a> , but I think that only applies to Unix variants.  Everytime I compile I get the error: "cannot find -lboost_filesystem" .  I've scoured the net, but cannot find a way to properly use Boost in Eclipse under a Windows platform.  Any help or suggestions are appreciated.</p>
