Hm okay, i just created a solution for visual studio using this helloworld cmake project as basis. The only difference is that there are more Image types he tried, but it is not working. I did try it with JPEG instead of PNG, i had to use a castimagefilter in order to use it with the canny filter which only support real values. No errors, but the output image is just black.<div>

Hi Brad, <div><br></div><div>thanks for your response. I should have mentioned in my first post that i am using Visual Studio 2010 on a Win7 32bit machine. I've read that this problem can be solved by adding
<span style="font-size:12px;white-space:pre-wrap;font-family:monospace">include(${ITK_USE_FILE})</span> to the makefile. But what is the corresponding way to do it in visual studio?</div><div>

<div style="word-wrap:break-word">Most likely this is a problem with how you are using CMake for ITK and is not related to the code you have included here.<div><br></div><div>There is an example of what a basic CMake project which uses ITK should like like int ITK/Examples/Installation/CMakeLists.txt</div>
