IGT:ToolKit/Build-IGSTK

Back to IGT:ToolKit

Notes before you begin

• Slicer3 is assumed to have been built on your computer in the directory igt-tutorial
• CMake 2.6 is absolutely required. If you don't have it installed, you can use the version of ccmake found in igt-tutorial/Slicer3-lib/CMake-build/bin (it will be CMake 2.6).

Get the IGSTK and IGSTKSandbox source code:

 $ cd igt-tutorial
 $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@public.kitware.com:/cvsroot/IGSTK login
   answer with 'igstk'
 $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@public.kitware.com:/cvsroot/IGSTK co IGSTK
 $ cvs -d :pserver:anonymous@public.kitware.com:/cvsroot/IGSTK co IGSTKSandbox

Build IGSTK

cd to your igt-tutorial folder, then

 $ mkdir IGSTK-build
 $ cd IGSTK-build
 $ ccmake ../IGSTK

Configure using CMake 2.6. You need ITK and VTK for this configuration, both of which can be found in your Slicer3-lib folder after Slicer3 has been built. Here is an example of how IGSTK is configured:

BUILD_DOCUMENTATION              OFF
BUILD_TESTING                    ON
CMAKE_BACKWARDS_COMPATIBILITY    2.4
CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE
CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX             /usr/local
DART_ROOT                        DART_ROOT-NOTFOUND

VTK_DIR                          /home/hliu/projects/Slicer3-lib/VTK-build

If the previous command has completed without error, you can start building

 $ make

Build IGSTKSandbox

cd to your igt-tutorial folder, then

 $ mkdir IGSTKSandbox-build
 $ cd IGSTKSandbox-build
 $ ccmake ../IGSTKSandbox

Configure using CMake 2.6. You need ITK, VTK and IGSTK for this configuration. ITK and VTK can be found in your Slicer3-lib folder after Slicer3 has been built. IGSTK was built in the previous step. Here is an example of how IGSTK is configured (note that you should refer to the IGSTK folder and not the IGSTK-build folder):
