Hello,
I am curious if MITK needs to be built and used with the VTK, ITK, and
GDCM that MITK downloads when the superbuild is performed. I want to be
able to build MITK without being forced to download the third party
libraries but wanted to clarify which versions I need to build myself.
Are the versions on http://mitk.org/download/thirdparty specific?? If I
download a generic version of VTK5.6.1 from the VTK website will MITK
still work? I had read on the mitk mailing list
"recently we improved the DICOM reading code in mitk::DicomSeriesReader.
Since this class was getting really complicated (it supported GDCM
before and after 2.0, plus ITK's DICOMIO) and most of the functional,
new code relied on GDCM 2, we decided to remove support for other
options.
A consequence of this is that MITK core now requires ITK to be built
with a custom compile of GDCM (2.0.14 is the version that is currently
built by super-build). We are sorry if this causes inconveniences for
you.
We hope this change will benefit any developers who want to understand
or improve DicomSeriesReader and it will also make sure that more DICOM
images are loaded correctly with MITK."
So this made me think that if I git the ITK and GDCM repositories from
their specific sites hat MITK will not compile or run. Can you please
clarify if MITK needs specific versions. I would like to be able to
clone the VTK, ITK, and GCDM repositories from their own site so I can
benefit from bug fixes and added features.
Thank you,
