[Insight-users] a error problem

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Aize,

When you run CMake for configuring InsightApplications you only
need to indicate in the ITK_DIR variable the path to the binary
directory where you built ITK.

 From the error message, it looks like you are not pointing the
ITK_DIR in CMake to the correct binary directory where you built
ITK, or... maybe you move that directory after you built ITK.

When you evaluate the difficulty of the build process you should
make the distinction between ITK and InsightApplications.  ITK
is very straight forward to build. InsightApplications is more
complex because it has more dependencies. However, if you are
systematic in the process of configuration, things should go
pretty smoothly.


I would be surprised if you have found any other open source
system of the same large scale as ITK that builds in as many
platforms as ITK and has a simpler build process.



Please let us know if you continue experiencing any problems.


BTW, Since you are just starting with ITK, I would encourage you
to use version 2.2 that was just released.  ITK 1.8 is one year
old at this point.



     Regards,



        Luis
