Vcpkg: How do I use packages installed by vcpkg in Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2019 Preview?

[fishnet37222]

I'm trying to use vcpkg to manage the third-party libraries for a C++ project I'm creating.

I have set the VCPKG_DEFAULT_TRIPLET environment variable to x64-windows. I have installed boost, poco, xerces-c, and wxwidgets using vcpkg. All four of them installed without any errors.

I ran the command vcpkg integrate install and did not get any errors. However, when I create an empty C++ project in Visual Studio 2019, I do not see any header files for those packages in the intelli-sense drop-down.

I tried building the project as the instructions at https://github.com/microsoft/vcpkg/blob/master/docs/examples/installing-and-using-packages.md state to no avail.

I'm using Microsoft Windows [Version 10.0.18999.1]. I have the latest versions of both Visual Studio 2019 and Visual Studio 2019 Preview installed.

Something that wasn't in the documentation is that you need to make sure you have the correct configuration selected in the drop-down in Visual Studio. I had only installed the 64-bit versions of the libraries but Visual Studio selects the 32-bit configuration of C++ projects by default. Once I removed the 32-bit configuration from my project, the issues disappeared.
