[Insight-users] Problem using SimpleITK

[Shireen Elhabian]

Thanks for your reply ... would you mind telling me how to set simpleitk
dir variable in my cmake file... I am using qtcreator with plain cmake list
... I already set up cmake module path variable with this directory that
you mentioned but with no success .

.I am now rebuilding simple itk with the default setting where there is no
shared libraries

Another question ... the cmake install prefix path is set by default to my
build directory ... should I change this to something related to usr/local
directory ... also I have already built and installed the latest version of
itk .. does this affect or change anything in simpleitk building ...

Thanks and I hope you can help me figure out how to solve this .. I have
been struggling with it all day long with no hope

Thanks
Shireen

variable "SimpleITK_DIR" to
"/PathToYouSimpleITKSuperbuid/lib/cmake/SimpleITK-0.6". This path should
contain the SimpleITKConfig.cmake file and a couple other SimpleITK files.
Alternatively, You should also be able to point this variable to the actual
SimpleITK sub-build which would be
 "/PathToYouSimpleITKSuperbuid/SimpleITK-build".

If you configure the "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX" to the path you want ITK and
SimpleITK installed, they will be installed during the superbuild.

like you choose to use shared libraries? This adds a bit of complexity to
things, so unless there is a good reason I would not recommend to it get
started with.
