CGAL users discussion list

[Andreas Fabri <>]

Hi JohnHans,

Were you able to compile and run an example or demo program
that is shipped with CGAL?

When you write "build my codes with CGAL", what do you expect
us to reply. There might be an interaction between your
code and CGAL code, but for telling you more it needs
a minimalistic  bug.cpp  so that we can try to reproduce
what you experience and mayb fix it.

Best regards,

Andreas Fabri
