[Insight-users] itk and Qt?

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Zein,

Qt is a very nice GUI library, and probably a better choice than
FLTK if you plan to develop a large application (and you are
willing to read Qt's documentation  :-) which is quite good, but
quite extensive.

FLTK is a better choice if you only have a week for writing your
program, but if your schedule has a couple of months that will
have room for Qt.

Qt works just fine with ITK, you will find examples of ITK+Qt
use in the InsightApplications checkout. Take a look at the
directory:

                  InsightApplications/QtITK


You don't have to modify ITK's CMake configuration for using
it with Qt, (nor for using it with FLTK or VTK), such options
only exist at the application level.


Regards,



    Luis
