\section{Third Party Software}
In this section we list the software
\subsection{Standard Template Library \label{thirdparty:stl}}
\cgal\ heavily uses the {\sc Stl}, and in particular adopted
many of its design ideas. The {\sc Stl} comes with the compiler,
but it is possible to use the compiler together with an
alternative {\sc Stl} implementation.
\subsection{Boost \label{thirdparty:Boost}}
(www.boost.org).
\subsection{GMP \label{thirdparty:GMP}}
A library for multi precision integers and rational numbers.
\cgal\ offers adapters for these number types.
GMP (www.swox.com/gmp).
\subsection{Leda \label{thirdparty:Leda}}
A library of efficient data structures and algorithms. \cgal\ offers
adapters to the {\sc Leda} number types.
(www.algorithmic-solutions.com).
\subsection{Taucs \label{thirdparty:Taucs}}
A library of sparse linear solvers.
It can be used by the \ccc{Surface_mesh_parametrization} package.
(http://www.tau.ac.il/\~stoledo/taucs/).
\subsection{zlib \label{thirdparty:zlib}}
A data compression library.
It is used in the examples of the \ccc{Surface_mesher} package.
(www.gzip.org/zlib).
\subsection{Qt \label{thirdparty:Qt}}
A {\sc Gui} library. It is used in all 2D demos.
(www.trolltech.com).
\subsection{Coin \label{thirdparty:Coin}}
An implementation of Open Inventor. It is used in the demo
of the \ccc{Kinetic_data_structures} package.
(www.sim.no).
