[Insight-users] Re: HELP ITK builting solution

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Marisa,

Thanks for letting us know,

There is something special going on in your machine.
('special' in the bad sense...)

The process of CMake configuration should only take
some minutes, during that time you should see in the
CMake's status bar the list of TRY_COMPILE options that
are being tried.

There is *no way* CMake will need one day and night
in order to do this, unless you are using a very old
computer or you have extremely low memory on it and
it is being forced to swap memory to disk.

When you say that it took you one day and one night:

    are you making reference to the process
    of configuring with CMake ?

    or to the time of compiling with Visual Studio ?



If you disable Examples and Testing, you should have
ITK built in under 15 minutes.  If you enable Testing
then it will take a couple of hours because you will
be building 843 executables (the entire test suite).


Please let us know the details of the machine that
you are using.


    Thanks


      Luis
