[Insight-developers] ITKv4 linking errors on Windows 7, MSVC 2010 Express

[Xiangrong]

Dear all,

We (Alex) discovered that CMake 2.6.4 and 2.8.2 generated the right target
name (_name in ITK\CMake\ITKModuleMacros.cmake) but somehow did not write
the right target name in the .vcxproj files.
For e.g., in itkv3p_netlib.vcxproj, we have something like:
<TargetName
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Debug|Win32'">itkv3p_netlib-4</TargetName>

When we upgraded to CMake 2.8.4, the problem was resolved.
 For e.g., in itkv3p_netlib.vcxproj, we now have:
<TargetName
Condition="'$(Configuration)|$(Platform)'=='Debug|Win32'">itkv3p_netlib-4.0</TargetName>

Regards,
Xiangrong, with Alex and Drew at SIgN.
