This page mostly documents the changes from the [[FARSIGHT_HowToBuild]] guide with a discrete build to work with ITKv4 and provides tips and hints on how to modify the existing codebase to work with the new/modified ITK classes. The SuperBuild is not known to work yet with ITKv4, so if you need ITKv4, this is the only way to do it.

In Git Bash shell (Start -> Git Bash in search box)

ITK now has modules. Modules can be individually or group-wise turned on and off. It is recommended to just turn on all the modules since most of ITK's functions are templated and thus are not built until they are actually used in your program.
+
Note: If you turn on a group, it will always build all the modules in that group regardless of if you have that module checked or not.
+
 
+
Turn on the following:
+
 
+
* ITKGroup_* or ITK_BUILD_ALL_MODULES
+
* ITK_USE_64BITS_IDS
+
* ITK_USE_REVIEW
+
 
+
Turn off the following
+
* BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
+
* BUILD_TESTING
+
* BUILD_EXAMPLES
+
* BUILD_DOXYGEN
+
 
+
'''Do NOT turn on ITK_USE_SYSTEM_VXL as documented in the old FARSIGHT_HowToBuild guide'''
+
 
+
CMakeList files may need to be edited to use ${ITK_LIBRARIES} instead of ITKCommon, ITKIO, ITKBasicFilter.... etc, otherwise you will get errors like "Cannot open file: ITKCommon.lib"

Changes to ITK since v3.20 should be located in one of three places:

http://www.itk.org/Wiki/Proposals:Refactoring_Statistics_Framework_2007_Migration_Users_Guide

In addition, it maybe helpful to check the ITKv4 API:
