To install CGAL, you should:
- download the compressed archive file from the CGAL web site www.cgal.org
- download the compressed archive file from the CGAL web site www.cgal.org
- unpack the file in the place in which you wish to install it
- unpack the file
- install the CGAL libraries:
the impatient can just try to run "./install_cgal -i", but we recommend
to first have a look at the Installation notes available from the
CGAL web site. http://www.cgal.org/Manual/
- build and install the CGAL libraries by running
"./install_cgal --prefix=/usr/local" to install CGAL in /usr/local
(or where ever else is desired)
or, for an interactive installer run "./install_cgal -i"
Either way the installer will try to locate the libraries used
and required by CGAL. These libraries are detailed in the CGAL
install notes at
<http://www.cgal.org/Manual/doc_html/installation_manual/contents.html>.
