[Insight-developers] Explicit instantiation linking issues on mac platform

[Julien Jomier]

Hi Hans,

Thanks a lot for taking care of this.

I think it's a good idea to make everything in the binary directory 
under the same hierarchy as the source code.
I just removed the CMakeLists.txt files associated with ExplicitITK 
because they are not needed anymore (since the source code is now 
included in ITKCommon), so you might have to change your patch a little bit.

Feel free to apply your patch,
Thanks again for your help with this,

Julien
