Hi

Thanks for your instruction!

I've tried your method and successfully generated the CGAL.sln file.

But then when I try to rebuild the ALL_BUILD.vcproj or the CGAL.vcproj according to the installation manual,there's an compiling error

 

C:\Program Files\CGAL-3.4\include\CGAL/config.h(57) : fatal error C1189: #error :  "This compiler does not have a working STL"

 

So could u please show me what to do after the CGAL.sln has been generated by CMake?

Thanks very much!

If I have correctly understood, you have set the *environment* variables*
BOOST_ROOT and so on, but instead you need to set *CMake* variables.

Run "cmake-gui.exe" (instead of "cmakesetup.exe"), then, search for the
comboxbox that displays "Simple View" and choose "Advanced View" instead. That
way you will see all CMake variable. Select all variables that begin with
"Boost_" and remove them. Then add a new variable (button "Add entry", next to
the combobox) named BOOST_ROOT, of type PATH, and with the value "c:\program
files\CGAL-3.4\boost" and then you can continue with the CMake configuration.
