Hello,
Thanks for your answer!
I've been working on this issue, and it seems to me that there actually were
fundamental changes in Sofa between the two versions, especially concerning the
simulation initialisation. I'm new to to both SOFA and MITK sources, but the
integration could, indeed, be a non-trivial project.
However I think that most of the integration methods you used for the former
version of SOFA are still efficient.
As for the rest of your message, I understand that any contribution has to be
compatible with both the supported platforms and the current patches related to
SOFA. Unfortunately I'm not sure I will be able to match these requirements
(especially concerning the supported platforms), but I'd be happy to share on
the issue if I'm able to make any progress.
Concerning the currently supported version of SOFA, did the patches you made
directly affect the SOFA sources, or are they only related to the build
process? I wasn't able to find this SOFA version sources elsewhere than in the
MITK deposit for third-party sources (to be able to compare).
Best,
Camille

Subject: AW: [mitk-users] [Simulation plugin] latest version of Sofa
?Hi,
the SOFA plugin currently isn't in active use by us and hence it wasn't updated
for some time. We're always happy for contributions. However, depending on how
much they changed in their build system, this might be a non-trivial and tricky
project. We always ensured that MITK simulation compiles with all of our
supported platforms, which is more than SOFA itself supports/supported (and we
would still require MITK simulation to do so in the future). So there are
patches for the build system of SOFA that we apply in the superbuild for this
purpose. Also the integration itself has to be reviewed carefully if there were
fundamental changes in SOFA. Another thing that we patched into the SOFA build
was the better integration of common third-party toolkits, so for example, MITK
and SOFA link against the same third-party toolkits. If you can ensure that
this will continue to work on all of our supported platforms, we would be
really happy for a contribution.
I'll see if I can spend a day in near future to look into the issue as I also
would like to upgrade to SOFA 16.12, but I can't promise anything at his state,
sorry.
Best,
Stefan

Subject: [mitk-users] [Simulation plugin] latest version of Sofa
Hello everyone,
I'd be interested in using the simulation plugin of MITK with the current
release version of Sofa (16.08 at the moment).
More precisely, I'm trying to compile MITK with pre-compiled sofa (16.08)
sources which I manually downloaded and compiled. This seems to require
investigation, as Sofa current release sources experienced some important
changes compared with the version automatically downloaded by MITK superbuild.
I'm wondering if something has already been done in this way, and if no, if it
would be possible to contribute ?
Best regards,
Camille
