Question

I am a fresh. I try to use CGAL under Cygwin. CGAL seems to be installed successfully, but cannot compile any example, when i try to 'cmake .' (succeeded) -> 'make' (failed) they throw me following bomb,

 make

What was your build directory while building the CGAL libraries? — lrineau, Mar 18 '14 at 16:08
it was "/home/JIN/CGAL-4.4/", and one more question for the latest XCode 5.1, CGAL does not work, what should I do? — Shengye Jin, Mar 20 '14 at 06:01

I am not completely sure of my answer, but it seems that, when you have configured the example inside /home/JIN/CGAL-4.4/examples/Core/, using CMake, you have specified /home/JIN/CGAL-4.4/config as the value of the CGAL_DIR variable. That directory contains the file CGALConfig.cmake that is intended to be used once CGAL is installed. Instead, you should use /home/JIN/CGAL-4.4 as value of CGAL_DIR. That directory contains the CGALConfig.cmake file that must be used to use the in-place build tree of CGAL, without installation.

Thank you Irineau, but problem still there, I have seen a lot of problems solution given by you, thanks .... A question more, how can I use CGAL on MAC with the XCode 5.1, since I update my mac, I cannot use CGAL anymore.... – Shengye Jin Apr 17 '14 at 11:15
@ShengyeJin Why have you accept my answer if that does not solve your problem? Thanks, anyway. The clang compiler of XCode 5.1 is support since CGAL-4.4. If you have an issue with that version of XCode, please fill another question on Stackoverflow, or post to the CGAL-discuss mailing-list. – lrineau Apr 17 '14 at 11:54
Thank you Irineau, actually I did ask on CGAL-discuss, but it seems nobody interested on my question. I will try CGAL 4.4 . – Shengye Jin Apr 17 '14 at 23:29
