CGAL users discussion list

[Tom Kazimiers <>]

Hi Fernando,

thanks for your answer. Why do you think I used the old installer
system? Actually, I did not use it. I installed CGAL, like you said, via
NSIS.
Then I installed CMake and used the cmake command line tool to generate
the solution, project and configuration files and then, compiled it.
On of the generated projects was named INSTALL and did copy all the
relevant (headers and libs) to the via the prefic set path.
And I did use the link you posted as instructions.

So what could it be else?

Regards,
Tom
