[Insight-developers] ITK 3.8 compiling issue on Solaris

[Attila Nagy]

Hi all,

as some of you might know (who subscribe to slicer-devel as well), I try to port Slicer (back) to Solaris (a least to x86).
A few days ago, Slicer3 trunk switched to ITK 3.8, and I'm hitting this bug:

http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do;jsessionid=fd449172296fd18c87b163eac100?bug_id=6581777
http://bugs.opensolaris.org/view_bug.do?bug_id=6619485

basically this means, that we must tell the linker to search for libs in /lib too, not just in/usr/lib, and so on.
I searched the Insight dashboard, and have found no indication of this error.
Here is my output:

(Note that I built it with Sun's stock 3.4.3 gcc in /usr/sfw/bin, gmake -j2, on SXDE 1/08)

If you think it worths it, maybe this linker flag could be added to (at least) itkTestDriver's linker flags.
If not, I could try to add this in Slicer's genlib.tcl to ITK's cmake flags, but maybe others will hit this issue too. (To be honest I tried a few things in genlib.tcl, but can't seem to tell cmake to tell the linker to search for libdladm.so.1 in /lib)

What's your opinion?

Thanks,

Attila
