[Insight-developers] ITK factory, MacOSX, .so, .dylib

[Sebastien BARRE]

Hello ITK,

Quick question: was the factory mechanism on MacOSX fixed so that ITK 
looks for .dylib instead of .so.

I see a few hacks in Slicer3 (which uses ITK 2.6) where IO plugin 
libraries are built (i.e. as .dylib), then a POST_BUILD custom 
command is added to copy it to the same library name, but with a .so 
extension, so that ITK can load it at run-time. And then I realized 
the .so libs are not even installed, so that's not helping :) Anyway, 
instead of fixing the install rule for the .so, can you guys tell me 
if I can get rid of the POST_BUILD command altogether and expect ITK 
2.6 to load .dylib fine?

Thanks
