+# - Find the Boost includes and libraries.
+# The following variables are set if Boost is found.  If Boost is not
+# found, Boost_FOUND is set to false.
+#  Boost_FOUND        - True when the Boost include directory is found.
+#  Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS - the path to where the boost include files are.
+#  Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS - The path to where the boost library files are.
+#  Boost_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC_DEFINITIONS - Only set if using Windows.
+
+# ----------------------------------------------------------------------------
+# If you have installed Boost in a non-standard location or you have
+# just staged the boost files using bjam then you have three
+# options. In the following comments, it is assumed that <Your Path>
+# points to the root directory of the include directory of Boost. e.g
+# If you have put boost in C:\development\Boost then <Your Path> is
+# "C:/development/Boost" and in this directory there will be two
+# directories called "include" and "lib".
+# 1) After CMake runs, set Boost_INCLUDE_DIR to <Your Path>/include/boost<-version>
+# 2) Use CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH to set a path to <Your Path>/include. This will allow FIND_PATH()
+#    to locate Boost_INCLUDE_DIR by utilizing the PATH_SUFFIXES option. e.g.
+#    SET(CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH ${CMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH} "<Your Path>/include")
+# 3) Set an environment variable called ${BOOST_ROOT} that points to the root of where you have
+#    installed Boost, e.g. <Your Path>. It is assumed that there is at least a subdirectory called
+#    include in this path.
+#
+# Note:
+#  1) If you are just using the boost headers, then you do not need to use
+#     Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS in your CMakeLists.txt file.
+#  2) If Boost has not been installed, then when setting Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS
+#     the script will look for /lib first and, if this fails, then for /stage/lib.
+#
+# Usage:
+# In your CMakeLists.txt file do something like this:
+# ...
+# # Boost
+# FIND_PACKAGE(Boost)
+# ...
+# INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS})
+# LINK_DIRECTORIES(${Boost_LIBRARY_DIRS})
+#
+# In Windows, we make the assumption that, if the Boost files are installed, the default directory
+# will be C:\boost.
+
+#
+# TODO:
+#
+# 1) Automatically find the Boost library files and eliminate the need
+#    to use Link Directories.
+#
+
+IF(WIN32)
+  # In windows, automatic linking is performed, so you do not have to specify the libraries.
+  # If you are linking to a dynamic runtime, then you can choose to link to either a static or a
+  # dynamic Boost library, the default is to do a static link.  You can alter this for a specific
+  # library "whatever" by defining BOOST_WHATEVER_DYN_LINK to force Boost library "whatever" to
+  # be linked dynamically.  Alternatively you can force all Boost libraries to dynamic link by
+  # defining BOOST_ALL_DYN_LINK.
+
+  # This feature can be disabled for Boost library "whatever" by defining BOOST_WHATEVER_NO_LIB,
+  # or for all of Boost by defining BOOST_ALL_NO_LIB.
+
+  # If you want to observe which libraries are being linked against then defining
+  # BOOST_LIB_DIAGNOSTIC will cause the auto-linking code to emit a #pragma message each time
+  # a library is selected for linking.
