CGAL users discussion list

[Dimitris Sgourdos <>]

Hello my name is Dimitris,
I must do a project from my university and i need to calculate the convex hull of some points, so I must use CGAL.
I use Visual studio 2010. I have downloaded CGAL-3.9  and  boost_1_48_0. 
But when I try to use CGAL in my project i got that error
>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file 'CGAL_Core-vc100-mt-gd.lib'
The problem is that I can't find that library in my computer to add  a reference to the project's options.
I believe that I didn't do something when I install CGAL. Maybe I have to set some BOOST variables but i don't know how! Cause when i try to compile CGAL with cmake-gui i got the following
"

I would appreciate if someone could help me cause I'm not so experienced and I feel totally lost now and I have very strict deadline.
