Hi Marius, AccessTwoImagesFixedDimensionByItk has indeed to create quite a lot of code: since the function to call is templated over two unknown image types, the access macro creates code for all common types (which are 8: char, short, int, and the respective unsigned versions, as well as float and double) *times* that number, i.e., 8x8=64! (see http://www.mitk.org/documentation/mitk-0.8/group__Adaptor.html#g0f12c9f206cd8e385bfaaff8afeb73c7 and click on _accessTwoImagesAllTypesByItk and then on _accessTwoImagesByItk and then on _accessTwoImagesByItk2).
That is the reason that we rarely use this access method. Normally it is sufficient to use the macros for a single image. So what exactly does your ITK filter chain do? Or do you even know the pixel type(s) that your images will have? For larger filter chains similar problems even occur for single images. Therefore, we have implemented workarounds for these cases (but currently they work only for the single image versions). One is to explicitly instantiate the function to call in separate .cpp files for parts of the image types (currently there are macros for splitting w.r.t. the image dimension). There is an example in the second half of the page describing the tutorial step 6 http://www.mitk.org/documentation/mitk-0.8/Step6Page.html (line starts with the words "Additionally the access function has to be instantiated"). Another workaround is to reduce the number of common types that should be supported. There is a cmake-macro for that purpose. Currently, this works only for the ...FixedPixelType versions of the access methods (afaik).
