Including the Boost C++ library in XCode

For those of you Mac OS X programmers trying to use the Boost C++ library who are confused with all this #include and #include-path nonsense and can't get your program to compile, I have finally figured it out.

All you need to do is follow these steps.

1. Unzip the Boost library somewhere, for example /usr/local (tip: Use Finder's “Go > Go to folder...” command to go to this hidden folder)
2. Open or create your XCode project
3. In the project window, click on the project name (right under the heading “Groups & Files”)
4. Click the Info button (blue circle with i)
5. Locate “Header Search Paths” and edit it. Add the path of wherever you unzipped the Boost library, for example, /usr/local/boost_1_34_1
6. Compile and run!

Hope that helped. If you are still having problems, try Googling lists.boost.org.
