[Ctk-developers] CTK Update to latest DCMTK

[Jean-Christophe Fillion-Robin]

Hi Folks,

Moving to the official DCMTK is great, it will minimize maintenance and
avoid a dependency on a custom version of DCMTK.

Nevertheless, it seems CTK build is now broken :(

Few remarks:

 1) In CMakeExternals/DCMTK.cmake - Instead of specifying "origin/master",
would it be possible to use a specific SHA1 as a GIT_TAG. Doing so will be
more deterministic and ensure all developers / checkout will behave the same
way. Before, origin/patched associated with our own DCMTK was a "controller"
moving target."

 Created issue https://github.com/commontk/CTK/issues/21 and assigned to
Michael

2) DCMTK build is broken - How should we address the problem:
   * Get write access to official dcmtk ?
   * Ask dcmtk folks to mirror DCMTK on github so that we can fork and
easily contribute patches ?
  * Mirror DCMTK ourself on commontk/dcmtk

Assigned issue https://github.com/commontk/CTK/issues/22 to Michael

In the mean time, I will update CMakeExternal/DCMTK.cmake so that fPIC is
passed.

3) Should we move to a master/next workflow ?

 Having a continuous dashboard setup for both master and next, we will be
able to easily identify issue and ensure that our change compile properly on
all targets platform.

Thanks
Jc
