[ITK] [ITK-users] FW: ITK Python wrapping

Hi Matt,

Thank you. Actually I have the .dll in the bin/release. 

Shortly, I (redundantly) added then ITKbuild/bin, ITKbuild/bin/release, ITKbuild/lib, ITKbuild/lib/release to BOTH my PATH environmental variable and the WrapITK.pth. Still not working, however I have a new error (see attachment 'error').

Therefore I went to check the ITKTransformPython module but it's not there in lib/Release where all other .lib files relative to the other modules are. I went in the directory shown in attachment 'directory' (it's in the Wrapping/Module/.. directory) and found a  log file (attachment): the build of this module failed (I check other modules and there build there did not fail). Could you please read the log? Why did just this module fail?

Thank you again!

Hi Fabio,

Thanks for the updates.

The apparent errors are not actual errors.  These result when CMake configuration runs (indicated by the preceding "--"), and CMake tests the availability of compiler features with try_compiles [1].  If an error occurs, then that feature is not used in the build.

It is good to see that the *.pyd files are there and your Python path.
There should still be *.dll files whose folder needs to be added to the PATH system environmental variable.  These are usually in the "bin" instead of "lib" directory. Search for a file "ITKCommon-4.8.dll" if you built ITK 4.8.

Hope this helps,
Matt

PS. Please reply-to-all so conversations remain on the mailing lists.

>> - Well, I have a ITKPyBasePython.pyc file in the ITK lib (and the things you told me to check are allright). So the difference is that the name has no underscore _ITKPyBasePython (as reported in the error) and the extension is pyc rather than pyd (although I have read it should not make the difference). Are those things relevant? If yes, how to correct for them? Maybe the dlls were not properly compiled so the underscore is missing?

Maybe just specifiy that there is no need to download Swig.
