First of all, the error log:

So under svg.h the include is as it follows:
#include <boost/algorithm/string/predicate.hpp>
I've MSVC2015 and BOOST + FREETYPE env. variables are added to the system AND Clion. If I build that from QT I only get predicate.hpp error.
Here is the QT PRO file

Answer 1

find_package(Boost REQUIRED)
# ...
# Find includes in corresponding build directories
include_directories(
${BOOST}
${FREETYPE}
${Qt5Widgets_INCLUDE_DIRS}
-lopengl32 -lglu32 -luser32
)
The variable set by the find_package( Boost ... ), containing the path to the Boost header files, is named Boost_INCLUDE_DIRS, not BOOST.
And unless FREETYPE is breaking the pattern, that should be FREETYPE_INCLUDE_DIRS as well.
And what are the linker directives (-lopengl32 -lglu32 -luser32) doing in there?
if (WIN32)
message(STATUS "LOADING OS --Windows--")
include_directories(
${BOOST}/lib32-msvc-14.0 -libboost_timer-vc140-mt-gd-1_59 -libboost_log-vc140-mt-gd-1_59 -libboost_log_setup-vc140-mt-gd-1_59
${FREETYPE}/objs/vc2010/Win32/ -lfreetype263d
)
endif ()
I am quite confused. What is this even meant to achieve? You use the command include_directories(), but it looks as if you are trying to give linker instructions here? Adding link dependencies is done via target_link_libraries()...
And even if you would be using the correct command, you would not give linker instructions (-lfreetype263d), but list link targets, preferably those provided by the various find_package() calls, i.e. ${Boost_LIBRARIES} (not ${BOOST}), and ${FREETYPE_LIBRARIES} (not ${FREETYPE}).
Further:
set(CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_COVERAGE "${CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE} -fprofile-arcs -ftest-coverage ")
add_definitions("-std=c++11")
These are compiler-specific options that won't float your boat if you are working with Visual Studio. Use if ( MSVC ) and if ( CMAKE_COMPILER_IS_GNUCC ) to check what compiler you are working with.
