− | == Building ==
| |
− | | |
− | You don't have to build Slicer yourself to use it. If you want a precompiled version, go [[Slicer:Slicer2.7_Getting_Started|here.]]
| |
− | | |
− | To build slicer from source, see [[Slicer:Slicer_2.7_Building|Slicer:Slicer_2.7_Building]]
| |
− | | |
− | * Windows
| |
− | ** distributed versions are built with Microsoft Visual Studio .NET in release mode (note that there may be some problems compiling with .NET 2003)
| |
− | | |
− | * Solaris
| |
− | ** We are building using gcc version 3.0.3.
| |
− | | |
− | * Linux
| |
− | ** We are building using gcc version 2.96 on RedHat 7, gcc version 3.2.2 on RedHat 9, and gcc 3.2.3 on RedHat Enterprise Linux.
| |
− | | |
− | * Mac OSX
| |
− | ** We are building using gcc version 3.3.
| |
− | | |
− | == Installing ==
| |
− | | |
− | No special installation is needed -- simply unpack the distribution archive and run the platform-specific executable at the top level (for example, slicer2-win32.exe for the Windows build). The slicer distribution contains all the needed support libraries and has been tested on a variety of system configurations.

− | == Known Issues: Base Operations ==
| |
− | | |
− | * All platforms
| |
− | | |
− | <br />
| |
− | | |
− | * Linux
| |
− | ** If you are having problems running Slicer over an ssh connection with X forwarding, the problem may be that you don't have the appropriate OpenGL libraries on the machine you're sshing from.

− | == Known Issues: Modules ==
| |
− | | |
− | As a research platform, Slicer includes several modules that are not yet fully implemented, but which the developers still felt were far enough along in functionality to provide utility for the community. As such, you may find that some operations do not behave as expected, particularly where they interact with other slicer functions. Please let us know about these issues by filing appropriate bug reports.
