# Pastebin kFaaRf4W Documentation question. I'm removing the "I" pronoun throughout the manual to keep a consistent point of view. While discussing adding an entry to CMake when Building HPX, the writer states that when they used BOOST_LIBRARYDIR, it pointed to a specific subdirectory, bin.v2. I need to know if using BOOST_LIBRARYDIR this way will always point the user to this subdirectory or if the subdirectory it points to may vary. Here's the original text: Alternatively, you could provide ``BOOST_LIBRARYDIR`` instead of ``BOOST_ROOT``; the difference is that ``BOOST_LIBRARYDIR`` should point to the subdirectory inside Boost root where all the compiled DLLs/LIBs are. I myself have used ``BOOST_LIBRARYDIR`` which pointed to the ``bin.v2`` subdirectory under the Boost rootdir. It is important to keep the meanings of these two variables separated from each other: ``BOOST_DIR`` points to the ROOT folder of the Boost library. ``BOOST_LIBRARYDIR`` points to the subdir inside the Boost root folder where the compiled binaries are.
