CGAL users discussion list

[Adam Getchell <>]

Hi Tony,

My project’s travis.yml file contains instructions on how to compile CGAL 
from source successfully on a Mac. It does this everytime I push a commit to 
GitHub.

https://github.com/acgetchell/CDT-plusplus/blob/master/.travis.yml

Note that Travis has Homebrew already installed, which in my opinion is the 
best package manager for MacOSX.

https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew

Once you have Homebrew though, you can just do:

# brew install cgal

And it will just work. (N.B. I’ve updated the Homebrew cgal formula for the 
past few versions.)

If you’re interested in the QT stuff, do:

# brew install coal --with-imaging

Best,

Adam Getchell
