Question

Answer 1

+2 A:

Tweak your project properties to add C:\Users\David\Desktop\boost_1_44_0 to the include path and maybe the link path if you plan to use the part of Boost that is not include-only (libboost_filesystem for instance).

Actually the include path should contain C:\Users\David\Desktop\boost_1_44_0\boost (the headers are in the "boost" directory inside the "boost_num_version" main directory usually (it was the case for all versions of boost I have worked with)).

Answer 2

A:

You have to include the header path and library path in your project.

Also #include <boost> won't do anything. You have to include each individual feature of boost that you need. For instance if you need to link to the filesystem.lib file in to boost directory, and use #include "boost/filesystem.hpp".
