[ITK] How do I generate the ITKMorpholigical library?

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Matt,

Isn't there some CMake option to "add" header and template headers files to targets? The properties/option I recall reading said it only effected how the files where displaced in an IDE.

Perhaps this is what Andy was expecting? To see the headers as part of the project some place?

Then what project would I need to build in msvc?  I certainly don't want to build all the tests and examples as that takes forever
