   Hello @tigllearner, I like your user name!

   If you could let me know the steps you followed to build TiGL, I might give you better pointers on what to change.

   In general, if you want to build TiGL from source, you would have to run CMake in the root directory of the TiGL repository. If you do so, CMake will automatically configure tigl_config.h. So I suggest creating a subdirectory build and invoking the cmake command from there, passing the tigl root directory as the argument. Note that the unit tests are not build automatically. You have to explicitly set the CMake Option TIGL_BUILD_TESTS to be ON. Also, you have to make sure that TiGL's requirements (OpenCascade and TiXI3) are installed and can be foun by CMake.

   mkdir build
   cd build
   cmake -DTIGL_BUILD_TESTS=ON ..
