Build ITK

Create a BUILD directory and go there (example given for linux/mac)

mkdir BUILD
cd BUILD

Run CCMake (example given for linux/mac)

ccmake ..

Set the following CMake flags ON:

• USE_WRAP_ITK
• ITK_USE_REVIEW (This is an advanced option, you would need to toggle them on)
• BUILD_SHARED_LIBS

Then Choose which language(s) you want to create libraries for by setting the corresponding flag ON

• WRAP_ITK_PYTHON
• WRAP_ITK_JAVA
• WRAP_ITK_TCL ...

Note that if you choose more than one, you might want to switch the following flag ON as well to sped up the process ( Examples of speed ups here ).

• WRAP_ITK_EXPLICIT

Much improvement in building speed can be achieve by enabling ccache.

Now, keep configuring until the "generate" option appears. Generate. Compile.
