FindBoost: Allow testing for multiple compiler suffixes (!639) · Merge requests · CMake / CMake

Roger Leigh requested to merge rleigh/cmake:boost-vs-toolset-fallback into master Mar 28, 2017

This is to permit VS2017 to make use of the -vc141 suffix or fall back to the compatible -vc140 suffix to use Boost libraries built with VS2015.

Boost_COMPILER or the internal _boost_COMPILER can now contain a list of compilers to check for. For VS2017 we use this list: -vc141;-vc140 to support use of Boost built against VS2017 or VS2015, preferring VS2107.

Topic-rename: FindBoost-vs-toolset-fallback
Fixes: #16631 (closed)
