[Insight-users] Compiling InsightApplications

[Anthony Bennett]

Hello everyone,

I'm working over at FSU's School of Computational Science and Information 
Technology, and we're looking into ITK for doing registration of 3D 
datasets of neurons. We're running Linux 2.4.22 (RedHat 9) on some Dell 
machines with 1.5GB of RAM, 2.40GHz P4s with 512KB L2 cache, and Gainward 
GeForce FX 5900 Ultras.

Now, then, I downloaded ITK 1.4.0 and compiled it, along with all the 
examples. Then I found out about the InsightApplications directory, so I 
got that off of the CVS. Looking at the readme, I discovered I needed VTK, 
FLTK, and Qt. We already have Qt (3.1) installed on here, so I got VTK 
(4.2), compiled that; FLTK (1.1.4), compiled that ("make" and "make 
install"); and then I tried compiling the InsightApplications. I've 
pointed CCMake in the proper directions for all the files required, but I 
keep hitting snags. After ccmake has generated the Makefile, I run the 
"make", and it manages to get as far as compiling 
Auxiliary/VtkFltk/libITKVtkFltk.so, but then it complains about 
Auxiliary/vtk/itkCurvatureFlowToVTK.cxx, starting right off on the first 
lines of main():

.../Auxiliary/vtk/itkCurvatureFlowToVTK.cxx:99:
    wrong number of template arguments (2, should be 1)

Like I said, as far as I know, everything else is compiled and installed 
properly. Is this a VTK thing, and ITK thing, or is it something I've 
failed to do?

Thanks in advance for all your help. Right now, all we really want to 
compile is the landmark registration stuff, so even if you can help us 
compile just that, we'd greatly appreciate it!
