[Insight-users] Creating an 3D image fails with an exeptional error

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Pieter,

The option:

   ITK_USE_SYSTEM_STDLIB

should be "ON" for a Linux system.

The only reason for turning this OFF is
if you are using SGI's and need to do
multithreading. In that case a particular
implementation of the STL library should 
be installed too.


So,... 
you should be Ok on Linux with:

    "ITK_USE_SYSTEM_STDLIB:BOOL=ON"

Now, the error you get from iostream.h
looks like the compiler actually found 
iostream.h but have trouble interpreting
it in the current context.

Could you please post these errrors ?
the ones you get from iostream.h 
(the iostream.h file *is* being found, 
the problem should be somewhere else)

Could you give us also more details about
your Linux installation. What versions are
you using...etc. 

Is this an installation that you have used 
for a while and that you can be confident with ?  
or is it a brand new installation.

have you done something fancy like updating 
your gcc or keeping two gcc versions on the 
same machine ?


Thanks

Luis
