Julia v1.9 support

[thomaskroi1996]

Hello!

It seems to be the case that due to package version incompabilities, the CGAL.jl package is not available for Julia v1.9.

It seems to be the case, that since CxxWrap.jl is limited to version 0.11 in the CGAL Project.toml file, a version of libcxxwrap_julia_jll gets installed, which is not supported on Julia v1.9 and above.

I think i found a workaround for my needs, however it would require me to create and push to a new branch on this repo.

Thank you in advance,

I just forked the repo and tried my workaround, however unfourtunately it failed.. Any ideas how to make the library available for Julia v1.9? Thank you!

I've been rather absent and only loosely keeping up-to-date w/ both Julia and CGAL updates. At a glance, I'm sure the lib for CxxWrap needs updating, along with the compatible Julia version. Ideally, I'd like to take a look at CGAL lib updates and update that as well. Unfortunately, I'm scarce for time nowadays and haven't been able to get around to this :\

[thomaskroi1996]

yes that is true, i have found the error to be in the CxxWrap library, and it is a different error depending on the version! thanks for the help anyway, i see what i can do!
