[Insight-users] strange linking problem

[Ho Cheung]

>Why there is a "l" letter in front of every lib?

The "/l" option specifies to the linker what to link. The error messages
are telling you that it can't find the libraries to be linked, probably
because of various errors in your CMakeLists.txt file.

__________________________________________________________________________________

This line is not needed.

SET(DMITK CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE)

If you only want Release, you can do that by only building Release in the
Visual Studio IDE itself.
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

I assume you are trying to link to some libraries in the following 2
directories?

 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES( C:/ITK/build/lib/Release )
 INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES( C:/ProgramData/Gatan/DMSDK/
lib/x64 )

You need to use link_directories command if this is the case.

I don't think you need this last line.

LINK_LIBRARIES(${ITK_LIBRARIES} DMPlugInBasic.lib Foundation.lib)

____________________________________________________________________________________

Here is a pretty minimal example of a CMake file that demonstrates what
needs to be done to include ITK and link to it.

Hope this helps,
