[Insight-users] Problems when building ITK based applications in a Visual C++6 environment

[Luis Ibanez]

Hi Henry,

Your life will be much simpler if you use CMake...

but if you insist in configuring your project in the
hard way, then you must enable the use of Exceptions.

     You do this by adding /GR compiler option.

Please check on the compiler options of your project
and enable exceptions.

If you were using CMake, it will take care of this
annoying little details, and you would be doing image
processing instead of tweaking compiler options.



   Regards,


     Luis
