I am trying to create Boost C ++ libraries version 1.65.1 on Windows with zlib support. I am using the zlib library from the Conan package with zlib that I created earlier. I'm trying to figure out the right steps to create a zlib-enabled boost to use them to create a Conan recipe for boost. I tried to follow the instructions of the official version of the documentation . I set the environment variables ZLIB_LIBRARY_PATH, ZLIB_NAMEand ZLIB_INCLUDEas follows:
set ZLIB_LIBRARY_PATH=C:\Users\ivan.bobev\.conan\data\zlib\1.2.11\igsoft\stable\package\63da998e3642b50bee33f4449826b2d623661505\lib
set ZLIB_NAME=zlibstat
set ZLIB_INCLUDE=C:\Users\ivan.bobev\.conan\data\zlib\1.2.11\igsoft\stable\package\63da998e3642b50bee33f4449826b2d623661505\include
and build command:
.\b2.exe -j8 --prefix="C:\work\test_builds\boost\install\x64_shared_release" --build-dir="C:\work\test_builds\boost\build\x64_shared_release" --layout=system architecture=x86 address-model=64 toolset=msvc variant=release debug-symbols=on link=shared threading=multi runtime-link=shared install
The result is:
- zlib : no (cached)
I also tried to clear the forcing of cash between runs.
After that, I tried to set environment variables directly from the b2build command :
.\b2.exe -j8 -sZLIB_LIBRARY_PATH="C:\Users\ivan.bobev\.conan\data\zlib\1.2.11\igsoft\stable\package\63da998e3642b50bee33f4449826b2d623661505\lib"-sZLIB_NAME="zlibstat" -sZLIB_INCLUDE="C:\Users\ivan.bobev\.conan\data\zlib\1.2.11\igsoft\stable\package\63da998e3642b50bee33f4449826b2d623661505\include" --prefix="C:\work\test_builds\boost\install\x64_shared_release" --build-dir="C:\work\test_builds\boost\build\x64_shared_release" --layout=system architecture=x86 address-model=64 toolset=msvc variant=release debug-symbols=on link=shared threading=multi runtime-link=shared install
The result was the same.

zlib include zlib. 3 , "../include/zlib". .
Boost zlib, Conan zlib?
