CGAL users discussion list

I'm trying to organize some code that uses CGAL into a suite of CMake
packages so that I can reuse them in various projects easily. I'm having
trouble writing the necessary CMake files. I must be doing something
incorrectly as the CGAL_XXX variables that CGAL_USE_FILE is supposed to set
up are blank. Using Windows and Visual Studio 12 2013.

The basic structure is like this:

geometry - (Depends on CGAL)
graphics - (Depends on geometry)
engine - (Depends on both geometry and graphics)
main - (Depends on all three)

As far as I understand, shared libraries are preferable in this situation,
but please correct me if there is a better solution. Ideally graphics would
just have to reference geometry, and not geometry AND CGAL, but I'm not sure
that's possible. Anyways, the CMakeLists.txt for geometry looks something
like this:



When this runs, the ${CGAL_LIBRARIES} and ${CGAL_3RD_PARTY_LIBRARIES} are
both blank:



When attempting to build the generated Visual Studio project, this line is
encountered:



That .lib file definitely exists and has been installed. So what am I doing
wrong?

Is there a canonically best way of including CGAL into CMake style packages?
