[Insight-users] Problems while trying to compile the examples.

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Linglan,

Some examples have dependencies that
condition if they are built or not.

For example, some of them require FLTK
to be installed, some others require VTK.

By enabling just Auxiliary and Examples it is to
expect that not all the examples will be compiled.


About the second group or errors that you posted:

It is not a good idea to call ccmake in subdirectories.
(e.g. in Insight/Examples) since CMake will navigate
downstream in the directory tree but not into the
parent directory.

Please invoke "ccmake" in the top build directory
and give the source directory as parameter.

For example, I usually build Insight in:

	~/lib/Insight

so, I cd to ~/lib/Insight and invoke

       ccmake ~/src/Insight

given that ~/src/Insight is where the sources are.

Then, I can call "make" at any level of the
directory tree.


The invokation of ccmake in subdirectories will
result in inconsistent Makefiles since most of
the project-wide settings will not be available
at the subdirectory level.


Please let us know if that helps,


    Thanks

     Luis
