[ITK] Building ITK 4.7.1 with Shared Libs and deployment

[Matt McCormick]

Hi Mike,


>   I am trying to build ITK 4.7.1 with Visual Studio 2013 on Windows 7 x64 as 64 bit binaries. I have set the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON cmake variable and built. The issue is that when I look that the generated ITKConfig.cmake file I see the value (ITK_BUILD_SHARED "OFF"). This causes problems as I am trying to create a deployable windows application and I need to figure out if my project should be including the ITK dll files.

This is strange.  ITK_BUILD_SHARED should correspond to BUILD_SHARED_LIBS.

> I am also looking for a CMake variable in the ITKConfig (or its children files) that would list out the particular build directory? I used to depend on a CMake GLoB statement to find all the DLL files but that seems to not be working any more.

The ITK Module API [1] may be useful.

HTH,
Matt
