[ITK-users] FW: External modules

[D***@csiro.au]

Hi,

I'm currently using ITK 4.12 under linux and am trying to configure/build ITK so I can create external modules. After some Googling I see that I need to make use of the "ITKModuleExternal" module however I can't seem to configure/build ITK (via CMake) such that the corresponding "ITKModuleExternal.cmake" file is installed.

I am currently building ITK with a custom range of options and modules turned on but can't seem to locate any relevant option in CMake that directly related to ITKModueExternal (even in Advanced mode).

Can someone enlighten me as to how to get this particular module configured and deployed?

Regards,

Darren Thompson

Hello Darren,

Are you trying to create a new external module? In this case there is
nothing that needs to be changed in your configuration inside ITK. You can
create a new folder for an independent project outside of your ITK source
tree and create your new external (remote) module in this new folder. Good
reference to see how things are done are this example [1] and the ITK
Software Guide [2] (Chapter 9). You can then configure and compile your
remote module (you will need to specify ITK_DIR (ITK build directory or
directory containing ITKConfig.cmake) as a separate project.

Hope this helps,
François
