[Insight-users] Problem compiling on Windows

[Robb Brown]

I haven't turned on CableSwig yet... still just trying to compile ITK  
with shared libraries.

ITK source path and ITK binary path have no spaces:

c:\ITK\InsightToolkit-1.4.0\
and c:\ITK\ITKb

I don't suppose it objects to the periods in the source path?  That's  
the way it unzips.

I didn't manually set any of the cmake parameters but I did have a look  
and they all look reasonable.  It's disturbing to have unix style paths  
in some places and Windows style in others though it seems to work  
okay.

Again, ITK compiles fine with static libraries, but fails to compile  
when shared libraries are turned on.  CableSwig, Python and Tk  
shouldn't be involved at this point.  Cygwin is not installed.

I'm used to fighting with ITK to get it to compile on the mac -- nice  
to see it's come far enough so it compiles with a minimum of fuss.   
 From here it looks like the Windows side has some catching up to do.
