[ITK-users] [ITK] Exception when running IO example ImageReadCastWrite in Xcode

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Tim,

Yes, the CMake generate XCode or Makefiles are different.  With the
CMake generated project, it will create a directory in your build
directory called "ITKIOFactoryRegistration".  This contains the
generated header files that do the factory registration automatically.
 The have to be created at CMake configure time because they depend on
which ITK IO modules were enabled.

Hope this helps,
Matt
