Hi Lima,

Your current procedure may not be the best way to get
familiar with the Insight Toolkit.

Instead of trying to build isolated .cxx files, just let VC++
build the whole toolkit. You can do this by selecting the
ALL_BUILD project as the default project and then building it.

Once the build process is finished, go to the Binary directory
where you found your ITK.dsw file and look for the /bin subdir.
Inside this directory you should find a "Debug" or "Release"
subdirectory, depending of the compilation mode you used.

Inside these subdirectories you will find the executables
for all the examples. The examples are designed to be thightly
integrated with the software guide.  Actually the content of
the software guide is taken directly from the examples code
and comments.

Please take a look at the software guide

        http://www . itk . org/ItkSoftwareGuide . pdf

This document has been designed to introduce new users to all
the details of using the toolkit.  As you read sections of the
guide, you may want to run the examples using the data available
in the Insight/Examples/Data directory.

If you start from the software guide, you will also find
instructions on how to configure and build the toolkit.


Regards,


    Luis
