[Qt-creator] Adding header files

[Alex T.]

You need to learn how the compiler looks for headers. In you case, you
specified -IC:\boost, now when you do #include <some_header.h> the compiler
will look for it in all directories passed to it via -I switch. If you
#include <view.hpp> it will not find it, because view.hpp is in
C:\boos\multi_array. So, you need to write

#include <multi_array/view.hpp>
