[Insight-users] Changing shared library settings in ccmake causes recompilation?

[Zachary Pincus]

Hello,

I just updated my ITK source tree to the latest CVS version and am 
trying to get some issues straightened out. This email pertains to my 
observation that changing the "build shared libraries" setting with 
ccmake forces certain parts of ITK to be re-compiled instead of just 
re-linked. Is this normal?

Specifically, toggling the setting (either way) seems to force the 
Numerics, Common, and Numerics/FEM directories to be re-compiled. Other 
object files are simply re-linked into the shared library form. Is this 
extra compiling necessary? It takes a long time...

I'm using OS X 10.3.3 with g++ 3.3.

Thanks,
