[Insight-developers] linking error ITK with an installed hdf5 1.8.12 on Mac

[Arnaud Gelas]

Hi Sean,

You were totally right! It turns out different compilers were used for hdf5 and for itk…
Now it works fine!

Thanks!!!

Happy holidays
Arnaud

You say you got HDF from homebrew... can you know which compiler, flag, and C++ library they used?  Try to match your ITK build to that.
