[Insight-developers] SimpleITK requires admin privelege to install?

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello Kent,

Glad to see you are trying SimpleITK.

The installation process for simpleITK has not been implemented yet. Most of the languages bindings or libraries do not have any installation or packaging commands. I believe people are going to start working on this process soon.

I have been primarily just using the python binding myself. I build ITK and simpleITK with static libraries, so it makes a manual installation of the 2 python files easy. I am not sure if you are trying to install everything, or if you specifically need JAVA?


Your feedback and feature requests are very much appreciated. Please keep them coming :)

Brad
