Do not bump your own thread after a short time...it's fairly rude. This is a VOLUNTEER forum, and we answer when we can, and IF we can. And please read the "Question Guidelines" link in my posting signature...unless you provide DETAILS, there is little we can tell you.
If you tried to read the documentation that came with the source code you downloaded, you'd see it lists the requirements needed to build it. Did you read it? You don't say what version/distro of Linux you're using, we can't tell you what the package might be called, but the README file lists the package names for Ubuntu. Probably something similar for your distro.
A good first step for any problem is to READ THE INSTRUCTIONS.
Hi Dear,
I use CentOS 6.5, in document for this package write:
./configure and make and make install,
and dont refer to : error: cannot find boost/chrono.hpp
below link is for hamterdb: http://files.hamsterdb.com/dl/hamsterdb-2.1.9.tar.gz (1.6MB volume)
can you install it and see problem,Please?
thanks,

Right...so AGAIN, install the missing package. AGAIN, YOU need to read the instructions...I even told you the name of the file, and what to look at. Did you do it????
Restating the same question a second time won't get you different answers.
No, I'm not going to install something I don't need. I have already TOLD YOU what the problem was, and what you need to read for the solution, which would tell you how to resolve it. It is now up to YOU to actually read the instructions and follow them.
You need the boost development libraries, and those library names are mentioned in the README file you were directed to before, but which you have not read. The solution to your problem is, very obviously, to install what's missing. Just typing in "yum provides <some name>", will tell you the name of the package to install...AGAIN, these are mentioned in the documentation you were given. Run "yum install <package name>" after you find the name.
Can you share what you searched for? What did you type into google, so we can help you refine your search terms. Because, I copied and pasted your exact output/question into google and the first hit was the answer.

Indeed, and the answer is also in the README file that is in the .gz file the OP linked to. It is VERY clearly stated what the requirements are before you run configure.
Also, I've never found the output to ./configure to be confusing. It usually tells you what you are missing and some combination of apt-get or yum plus the library name following the error will usually fix it. There isn't any reason to even google such things really...
The hardest part is knowing the naming scheme of your header/dev packages! (vim-devel for rhel, or vim-headers for debian for a completely made up example.)
