Hi,

As i know, geomview need some libs of linux system, I/O and X11 libs, and seems no one have time to deploy it into Microsoft system until now. 

If you only care the IDE, I think "Code Blocks" and "Eclipse C++" maybe alternative choices. I once successful use "CodeBlocks + Cygwin" to let my codes invoke the the geomview related header files in CGAL. However, you need to compile and install CGAL under cygwin.  This is a little trick that you can use an IDE installed windows but use the GNU c++ compiler installed in cygwin).

For the mesh viewer, I recommend you to use "MeshLab". Also you can write a mesh viewer by yourself.  You can use a specific file format, such as ".OFF" ".OBJ" format or the one defined by yourself, to exchange the information between your programs and the mesh viewer. 

help it useful.:)

best regards

Hi,

Ah no, but here's the answer in your question... ;-)
Actually, i'd like to use Visual studio (so in windows enviroment) with  both cgal and geomview.
Is there any trick to make this feasible?

Best regards,

Hi,

Did u  install the CGAL and Geomview in the same compiler environment, i mean  MS9.0 c++ compiler under Windows or GUN C/C++ compiler under Ubuntu/ cygwin ?

Hi,

I'm pretty sure that the issue about using geomview with CGAL was already asked
before. But recently, i discovered that geomview could be installed on
windows platforms using unix-like systems (portable ubuntu or cygwin...).

To configure CGAL, i tried to fill the variable CGAL_USE_GEOMVIEW in cmake gui
with the path to goemview binaries, but i didn't work out.

Is it correct what i did? is there any additional setting i missed to do?

Any suggestion is helpful.

Best regards,

Youssef ALJ
