[ITK] [ITK-users] Switching between debug and release libaraies in Visual Studio

Fri May 20 12:10:32 EDT 2016

Building up on Tim's answer:

When you build ITK, let's say the binary folder is present in
${ITK_BUILD_DIR}. Here you have built both the Debug and Release variants
of the library (basically, ${ITK_BUILD_DIR}/lib/Debug
and ${ITK_BUILD_DIR}/lib/Release folders are populated with the required
libraries). In this setup, when you trying link your project to ITK, you
will need to set ITK_DIR in your CMake configuration to ${ITK_BUILD_DIR}
and CMake will take care of everything.

Cheers and all the best!
