[Insight-users] creating ITK dll with MS Visual C++ 6.0

[Haris Saybasili]

Hi,

I am trying to create a dll using ITK. I am trying a very simple
application:

---------------
    typedef itk::Image< unsigned short, 3 > ImageType;

    ImageType::Pointer image = ImageType::New();
    std::cout << "ITK Hello World !" << std::endl;
    FILE *f;
    f = fopen("c:/temp/itk.txt","w");
    fprintf(f,"itk : hello world!!!\n");
    fclose(f);
------------------

There is nothing more in it. But I have some problems with msvc 6.0. I
modified the makefile (.mak) exported from Visual C++ project, included all
the ITK libraries, and other necessary libraries. But when I try to compile
(make) it with nmake provided by msvc 6.0:

How this can happen?? How can it be unable to find cout??? I don't know what
to do.

I know that this is a really bad idea to use visual c++ 6.0 compiler, as it
is old and does not complies with ANSI C++. But I have to use it. I managed
to compile it as a static library, but I need a dynamic one.

Anybody has an idea?

Thanks in advance,

haris
