 #### Setting **BOOST_ROOT**
 
 If necessary, the project's CMake config is able to use the value of the **BOOST_ROOT** environment variable to help it find Boost, assuming the variable is set.  It is not always required, as CMake may be able to find Boost without this, depending on how Boost was "installed."
 
 However, it will often be necessary to set **BOOST_ROOT** if Boost was manually set up by downloading the distribution.
