[Insight-users] itk 3.18 compilation with external vxl installation

[Moti Freiman]

Hi,
I tried to compile ITK 3.18 on a linux machine (opensuse 11.3),
with external VXL installation (vxl 1.14).

First I got an error from the cmake as follows:
CMake Error at /usr/local/share/vxl/cmake/UseVXL.cmake:135 (INCLUDE):
  include could not find load file:

    /doxygen.cmake
Call Stack (most recent call first):
  CMakeLists.txt:466 (INCLUDE)

Then I removed the problematic line from the UseVXL.cmake file.
Next I succeed to create the Makefile, and start to build ITK.
Then I got the following error:

It seems that ITK assume some specific version of VXL, but I did not
managed to find documentation for it.
Any idea?
Thanks,
Moti
