[Insight-users] Compilation error with itkV4

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Claire,

Yes, these stddef problems were fixed a while ago in ITKv4.  We have a
Fedora 15 box on our dashboard

http://public.kitware.com/dashboard.php?name=itk

and I personally use gcc 4.6.1.


So, you could either use ITK upstream,

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK/Git


Or you could help the CTK developers upgrade the ITKv4 version they use.


Thanks,
Matt
