Hi
When I compiling CGALPLUGIN in VS2017,it showed some errors like these.I use the version of SOFA on the master branch and CGAL4.7.

C2988	unrecognizable template declaration/definition (compiling source file D:\sofa\src\applications\plugins\CGALPlugin\src\CGALPlugin\DecimateMesh.cpp)	CGALPlugin	C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include\xmemory	18

Note: C++ does not support default-int (compiling source file D:\sofa\src\applications\plugins\CGALPlugin\src\CGALPlugin\MeshGenerationFromPolyhedron.cpp)	CGALPlugin	C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio\2017\Community\VC\Tools\MSVC\14.16.27023\include\xmemory	18

Do you install CGAL package CGAL? if not, I think you should try to download and install it.

HI.Thanks for your reply.
I have installed CGAL4.7 and run the CGAL demo Triangulation_2 successfully.But there are some errors as was stated above when compiling CGALPLUGIN.

CGAL4.7 it is too old. I think you should try to upgrade toward the latest version 5.0
