[ITK-users] linker problem

[Matt McCormick]

Hi,

Is the configuration type in Visual Studio consistent between ITK and
your project? There is usually a dropdown that has "Debug", "Release",
etc.  If this is a problem, then limit the types available in the
CMAKE_CONFIGURATION_TYPES CMake variable to a single type -- they will
always be compatible in this case.

HTH,
Matt
