Boost c++ LNK1104 cannot open file 'libboost_serialization-vc140-mt-gd-1_62.lib' error
boost, c++, visual-studio, visual-studio-2015
Solution
First of all, need to Building Boost.Build engine (just run bootstrap.bat on Windows)
Second step is to compile boost libraries (run b2.exe on Windows)
Third and the final step is to add path "...\boost_1_62_0\stage\lib\" to General->Library directories project configuration
