[ITK] ITK 4.5.1 include and lib paths

[Armstrong, Hirotatsu]

Hey Matt,

Thanks for the info, I will give that a shot.  I am used to developing on linux so compiling in general has been tricky for me on Windows.  However, the ITK wiki was very useful.  Below I'll list the modifications I had to make to get it to compile on my setup...

==================
Windows 7 64-bit
minGW GCC/G++ 4.8.1
Cmake 2.8.12.2
ITK 4.5.1
==================

1) modify InsightToolkit-4.5.1\Modules\Filtering\ImageFilterBase\test\CMakeLists.txt to comment out
 if (DEFINED ITK_CXX_DISABLE_OPTIMIZATION_FLAG)
set_source_files_properties(
    itkCastImageFilterTest.cxx
    PROPERTIES COMPILE_FLAGS ${ITK_CXX_DISABLE_OPTIMIZATION_FLAG}
  )
The above lines were crashing compilation of itkCastImageFilterTest.cxx (this still compiled even when I disabled the make tests option during config?)

2) added the following typedefs...
	MinGW\include\io.h: line 301
	typedef _off64_t off64_t

	 MinGW\include\unistd.h: line 65
	typedef _off_t off_t

	InsightToolkit-4.5.1\Modules\ThirdParty\HDF5\src\itkhdf5\src\H5Ppublic.h: line 299
	typedef _off_t off_t

these typedefs are already defined in minGW/include/sys/types.h, but are wrapped in the compiler directives
#ifndef __STRICT_ANSI__
typedef __int64 off64_t;
#endif /* __STRICT_ANSI__ */

#ifndef __STRICT_ANSI__
typedef _off_t	off_t;
#endif /* __STRICT_ANSI__ */

So I modified the above files rather than types.h.  Those changes seemed let it compile fine.

Hi James,

Welcome to ITK!

Are there are any experiences with your MinGW build that we can use to improve the experience for others?

When building against ITK, it is highly recommended to use CMake to generate your project.  To create a Code::Blocks project with CMake, select "CodeBlocks - MinGW Makefiles" as the CMake generator.

Otherwise, the include directories and libraries can be found by creating by creating a small CMake project:

  cmake_minimum_required( VERSION 2.8 )
  find_package( ITK REQUIRED )
  message( "ITK_LIBRARIES: ${ITK_LIBRARIES}" )
  message( "ITK_INCLUDE_DIRS: ${ITK_INCLUDE_DIRS}" )
  message( "ITK_LIBRARY_DIRS: ${ITK_LIBRARY_DIRS}" )

Hope this helps,
Matt
