Re: [proteowizard-support] pwiz library

[Han Hu <hh....@gm...>]

Thanks a lot. I just noticed that the boost lib files were located in the
folder "ext" instead of folder “libraries“. I manually specified all
related boost and zlib lib files in Linker>>Input>>Additional Dependencies
and the test program works now! I haven't touched the preprocessor part.
