[Insight-users] MINC 1/2 external module

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Hello Vladimir,

That sounds like great news that you have the external module working.

If I understand your patch to ITK proper, you are trying to add your external IO module to the list of default ImageIO modules that get registered, as opposed to relaying on ITK_AUTOLOAD_PATH environment variable.

The feature that is needed to the ability to automatically add external modules to this default list. Either through a cmake function in the itk-module.cmake file, or auto-magically trying to register modules which have IO in there name some something....

Could you please add a feature request to the ITK BUG tracker:

Thanks,
Brad
