dear sven,

you re getting different errors messages, that s progress :-)

I never met that specific error before but, it's likely to be related
to the window specific all import/export feature. If this is the case,
this is supposed to be made transparent through the definition of
ITK_EXPORT at configuration time. each itk class declaration should
use it ( class ITK_EXPORT itkMyClassName ...). Can you check if in the
declaration of itkProcessObject the keyword is there and as the right
value (in MSVC you can move your mouse over the symbol to see it's
definition, if it s empty, you have a problem).

this is a windows issues and, from what I see, not necessarily related
to wrapping.

I wouldn't use EXPLICIT. Just use normal wrapping (there is an extra
advanced flag for EXPLICIT instanciation, that is supposed to fasten
the compilation of the wrapping if you use several language by first
explicitly instantiating some of the template, and then wrapping
those, switch it off).

I guess it works for them :-)

More seriously, I just checked the dashboard sand indeed, there is not
a lot of windows machine (ihpc @ NLM, redwall @ kitware, factory @
kitware which has a different purpose, ...). Maybe it s time to call
for contribution. I will see if I can resurrect one of the machine
that gaetan was using for the wrapping.

Maybe you would also like to contribute, even only on-time
experimental build so we can see more in details your errors? within
MSVC just build the Experimental project (which is skipped by default
when you BUILD_ALL), from the command line you can run:
ctest -D Experimental.

regards,

alex.
