CGAL users discussion list

["Sebastien Loriot (GeometryFactory)" <>]

There are a set of demos in the demo directory of a release
(Arrangement_on_surface_2, Bounding_volumes, ...)

For everything that is 3D the polyhedron demo is a rather complete
tool that gives you access to almost every 3D algorithm in CGAL.

Sebastien.
