Hello,

We will make the usage of GMP/Mpfr optional again.

Meanwhile:

You have to comment 3 lines in the CMake machinery:

In CGAL-4.1/CMakeList.txt you have to comment:

#list (INSERT CGAL_ESSENTIAL_3RD_PARTY_LIBRARIES 0 GMP MPFR)
#hide_variable(CGAL_ESSENTIAL_3RD_PARTY_LIBRARIES)

In CGAL-4.1/cmake/modules/UseCGAL.cmake you have to comment:

#use_essential_libs()


Best regards,

Andreas

Hello,

We've been using CGAL 4.0 with Visual Studio 2010 for a while now. We don't
use GMP and MPFR, but the built-in numeric types. We are now trying to
upgrade to Visual Studio 2012.

On the one hand, I understand that CGAL 4.0 doesn't support VS2012 (such
support was added in CGAL 4.2).
On the other hand, I understand that as of CGAL 4.1, GMP and MPFR are no
longer optional.

Is this correct?
Is there any way that I can compile either version of CGAL (4.0-4.2) with
VS2012 without GMP and MPFR?

Thank you,
Yodan
