[Insight-users] Compiling ITK on Windows: PNG problems

[Raghavendra Chandrashekara]

Hi Mathieu,

Thanks very much for your help! Adding your lines worked but not on the
ramp.gipl image in the Testing/Data/Input directory. I used one of our own
GIPL images. Do you think the ramp.gipl image has been corrupted?

Also shouldn't the first method work where you don't actually set the
GiplImageIO reader type?

Thanks,

Raghavendra
