[Insight-users] GDCM in ITK

[Mathieu Malaterre]

	The API in GDCM CVS is incompatible with the 1.2.x branch. It is not 
backward compatible this is the reason why I never backported directly 
the main CVS branch.

	GDCM CVS should not have that many more features compare to GDCM 1.2.x 
foudn in ITK. I would simply suggest that you try, I am guessing your 
little program should compile (except the ::New() versus operator new)

Let us know how it goes,
Mathieu
