[Insight-users] ITK link error

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Ahmet,


           Thanks for posting the link error messages.


They indicate that you are mixing different types of compilation modes.
It is a common mistake to build ITK for "Debug" and then attempt to
build your application for "Release" or the other way around.

The linker is telling you that you are mixing two incompatible 
compilation modes:


       warning LNK4098: defaultlib 'MSVCRT'
       conflicts with use of other libs;



Visibly you are not using CMake to configure your project.

You will not be facing these difficulties if you were using CMake.
CMake will take care of making sure that all your libraries are
build consistently.


Please use CMake to configure your project, or at least make sure
that you build *ALL* your libraries with *EXACTLY THE SAME* compilation
options. In particular "Debug vs Release" and "Multi-threaded vs
Single-Threaded."



      Regards,


          Luis
