CPMAddPackage with Boost Python ?

[nicolas-f]

Hello,

I need your help on fetch boost with boost python using CPMAddPackage

I've done this:

CPMAddPackage(
  NAME Boost
  VERSION 1.81.0
  GITHUB_REPOSITORY "boostorg/boost"
  GIT_TAG "boost-1.81.0"
)

It works for default packages, but I don't know how to add BOOST PYTHON component. Because I use to do this before:

find_package(Boost REQUIRED COMPONENTS system python filesystem regex)

I tried this before CPMAddPackage but nothing change

set(BOOST_INCLUDE_LIBRARIES system python filesystem regex)

Got still this:

-- CPM: Adding package Boost@1.81.0 (boost-1.81.0)
-- Boost: Debug build, static libraries, MPI OFF, Python OFF, testing OFF
-- Boost: libraries included: system;python;filesystem;regex
-- Boost.Math: standalone mode OFF
-- Found the following ICU libraries:

Thanks

I think its ok.

I had to add this lines in order to include and build boost python

set(BOOST_INCLUDE_LIBRARIES system python filesystem regex)
set(BOOST_ENABLE_PYTHON ON)
