=Configuring the Project to use Boost= code format="cpp"
 * Edit your project's properties (right-click, properties)
 * Select// **C/C++ Build:Settings**//
 * Under// **GCC C++ Compiler:Includes**// enter the include directory for boost.
 * Click the page with the green plus.
 * Select// **File system...**//
 * Enter or search to the directory. For my install location, the directory is: C:\workspaces\boost_1_43_0.
 * Under// **MinGW C++ Linker:Libraries**//, enter both a library path as well as a library (for this example, we'll use boost date_time).
 * Under// **Libraries (-l)**//, click on the page with a green plus
 * Enter the name of the library (minus "lib" and ".lib"):// **boost_date_time-mgw44-mt-1_43**//
 * Under// **Library search path (-L)**//, click on the page with a green plus
 * Enter the directory where the library is located. On my machine it is// **C:\workspaces\boost_1_43_0\stage\lib**//
 * Click OK
 * Verify these settings.
 * Create a new file: BoostDateTimeSmokeTest.cpp:
 * 1) include 


 * 1) include 

TEST_GROUP(Dates) {

};

TEST(Dates, CanBeLinkedIn) { using namespace boost::gregorian; std::string s("2001-10-9"); date d(from_simple_string(s)); } code
 * Important: The CppUTest header files need to be included// **last**//.
 * Build and run your tests. You're really just checking that you can compile and link.
