CGAL users discussion list

[David Coeurjolly <>]

Re,

I've found what was wrong and maybe something should be done in CGAL cmake 
scripts: In fact, all my includes use the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable I've 
specified for my project (and not relative explicit paths "cmake/xxx.cmake"). 

When doing a 

 INCLUDE( ${CGAL_USE_FILE} )

CGAL overwrites the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH variable which may cause problems for 
further  cmake scripts includes.

To fix my problem, I've just had to reset the  CMAKE_MODULE_PATH after the 
CGAL_USE_FILE include. 

Maybe the USE_FILE could backup this variable and reset it when all CGAL 
related scripts have been interpreted...

(I'm using last CGAL / cmake releases)
