[ITK] [ITK-users] Linker problems since Ubuntu 16.04 upgrade

Wed Sep 7 12:13:24 EDT 2016

Hello,

You are using the installed Ubuntu version?

Because I see “cxx11” in the string symbol below, I think there may be a miss match between the C++ versions used to compile ITK and what you use here in this example.

I would try to determine which compiler and flags your ubuntu version of ITK was compiled with and try to use the same.

Alternatively, you could just compile ITK from source.

HTH,
Brad
