As a MacPorts developer, working on a Portfile for ITK called
InsightToolkit, I need to and want to work with MacPorts.  I'm currently
updating this port to ITK @3.12.0.  MacPorts provides a way to document and
automate build configurations, including dependencies.  It helps me, while
simultaneously making my work available to anyone using MacPorts.  AFAIK,
the MacPorts compiler is provided by an xcode installation (I can double
check the defaults or change to a specific compiler at will).  Most of the
ITK build is fine (as expected), but I've run into troubles with wrapping
ITK.  It looks like it's best to stick with python wrapping (leave out java
and tcl, or whatever else, for now).  As a python programmer myself, that
preference is understandable, although I thought tcl would be fine too, but
maybe not.  I have too much to learn about wrapping - ignorance is bliss,
until you need something to work when it doesn't work.

BTW, there is a VTK 5.4.0 port in vtk-devel in macports.  In that port, just
about everything is worked out, including wrapping, MPI, Boost, databases,
etc.  I'm also working on a cableswig port, which builds and installs fine,
but there's an issue with finding the SWIG Lib directory for cswig.

So, this port development is working with the wrapITK in the ITK 3.12.0
release.  It also pulls in the CableSwig-ITK-3.12.0 release and puts it into
<ITK-srcPath>/Utilities/CableSwig and assumes that this cableswig is built
by default (i.e., no cmake variables are explicitly set to switch on the
build for it).  The cmake vars for the wrapITK are specified:

        -DUSE_WRAP_ITK:BOOL=ON \
        -DITK_USE_REVIEW:BOOL=ON \
        -DGUILE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=${prefix}/bin/guile \
        -DGUILE_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=${prefix}/lib/libguile.dylib \
        -DGUILE_INCLUDE_PATH:PATH=${prefix}/include/guile \
        -DSWIG_BUILD_EXAMPLES:BOOL=ON

Thanks for helping out, I will look at your CmakeCache.txt today.

Take care,
