Hello,

I am trying to install CGAL-3.5.1 on a Windows computer with Visual Studio 2008... and I have some problems doing it.

I have installed every 3rd party component needed, and generated a solution with Cmake from the CGAL directory.

However, when I try to compile it (and the same happens with my own code), I get about 10 error messages for each subcomponent, similar to these:
4>C:\CGAL-3.5.1\auxiliary\gmp\include\mpfr.h(280) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'intmax_t'

4>C:\CGAL-3.5.1\auxiliary\gmp\include\mpfr.h(282) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'intmax_t'
4>C:\CGAL-3.5.1\auxiliary\gmp\include\mpfr.h(283) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'uintmax_t'

4>C:\CGAL-3.5.1\auxiliary\gmp\include\mpfr.h(285) : error C2061: syntax error : identifier 'uintmax_t'
4>C:\CGAL-3.5.1\auxiliary\gmp\include\mpfr.h(286) : error C2146: syntax error : missing ';' before identifier '__gmpfr_mpfr_get_sj'

Did any of you have this problem with installation? or knows how to solve it?

Thank you very much for your help!
Best regards,
