[ITK-dev] Missing IO factories when building without cmake

[Bradley Lowekamp]

Bill,

I have added a fragment identifier to the FAQ:

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/ITK/FAQ#NoFactoryException

I think this should be referenced from the exception, and the details of the problem and the solution should be placed there. What you have written is a good start.

Thanks for the extended effort in addressing this common problem!
Brad
