CGAL users discussion list

I would argue its far from simple. I've a bunch of Windows machines.
The following:

> git clone https://code.google.com/p/cgal-bindings
> cd cgal-bindings
> mkdir build/CGAL-3.9_release -p
> cd build/CGAL-3.9_release
> cmake -DCGAL_DIR=/usr/lib/CGAL -DBUILD_PYTHON=OFF 
> -DJAVA_OUTDIR_PREFIX=../../examples/java ../..
> make -j 4
> cd ../../examples/java
> javac test_kernel.java
> export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=${LD_LIBRARY_PATH}:lib
> java test_kernel
... output of the example test_kernel.java ...

Means:

I have to not only install cmake on the system, but also java (java
from Oracle?), make sure they are in the path.  And on windows, where
do you get "make" from. Its completely useless, unless there is an MSI
for this code - that picks python 2.7.3 or 3.3 automatically and
installs the bindings - like every other python library that works on
windows. Thats just my opinion.

Thanks.
