title: How to link library path of the boost library in VS Code?
body: <p>I have downloaded and built the boost library with the following commands
  <code>bootstrap.bat gcc</code> and then <code>b2 toolset=gcc</code>. After that I've also included it in the compiler path in vs code in <code>c_cpp_properties.json</code> .The file is included(I know this as the error in my file that was highlighted before including the path vanished) but I am unable to link the libraries in vs code. While running the code shows the following error:</p>
  
  <pre><code>PS E:\VS Code Workspaces\Projects&gt; cd "e:\VS Code Workspaces\Projects\C++ Projects\CodeChef\" ; if ($?) { g++ fctrl.cpp -o fctrl } ; if ($?) { .\fctrl }       
  fctrl.cpp:2:9: fatal error: boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp: No such file or directory
   #include&lt;boost/multiprecision/cpp_int.hpp&gt;
           ^~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  compilation terminated.
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I do have a last option to install the mingw distro from nuwen but I would like to avoid that. 
  Thanks in advance.</p>
