If you've built the boost libraries correctly see: building boost for windows, you also need to add stage/$(Platform)/lib as additional library directory in the project settings.

Ideally you should set stage/$(Platform)/lib for all configuration types and for all platforms, see: building boost for visual studio 2013

Note, boost enables autolinking with Visual Studio by default, unless you define the macro BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB

Or install the libraries somewhere, rather than using them from the temporary staging directory. – Dan Mašek Jun 22 '16 at 14:23
Thank you, I will make sure that later. – ERICWANG Jun 23 '16 at 05:24
