Hi Martin, I am not aware of anyone encountering this problem before, but it might possibly be due to a memory or cpu issue.
Regarding your question about the recommended hardware, I believe we do not have any definite specs we would suggest, but generally using a 64 Bit system is preferable. We do have some dart clients and test machines using 32 Bit, but considering image processing tends to be a very memory intensive task it is not really recommended and now and then results in long swapping and freezes. The number of cores and their speed will mostly affect the time any given task takes (be it compiling or running an algorithm) so the minimum specs depend on your patience. A couple of questions which might help shedding light on the situation: Have you tried building any "big" projects using your system before (QT/ITK/VTK for example)? Was heat memory an issue there? Have you downloaded and tried out one of our installers[1]? Did it run fine? Have you tried doing the entire superbuild, instead of building each project separately? I hope this helps, Caspar [1] http://www.mitk.org/Download -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- Von: Martin Tatzber [mailto:[email protected]] Gesendet: Mittwoch, 23.

I want to build MITK under Windows 7 Professional SP1, but my laptop keeps crashing while building the projects in Visual Studio. I tried to do the steps as described here: http://docs.mitk.org/nightly-qt4/BuildInstructionsPage.html Programs used: CMake 2.8.9 git version 1.8.0.msysgit.0 Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 Express Qt v4.8.4 (VS2008 OpenSource) It seems to me that the CPU is too weak, because everytime, the laptop crashes, it's while compiling some *.c or *.cc files, resulting in 100% CPU usage. My processor is an Intel Core i3-2350M CUP @ 2.30GHz. But it doesn't heat up or anything, at least I cannot feel anything on the surface. If so, what processor do I need to get the thing done? Here is what I did: I made the git clone in C:\MITK\MITK-repository and then built the new MITK directory into C:\MITK\MITK-repository\MITK-suberbuild using the cmake-gui. In CMake, I chose Visual Studio 9 2008 as generator, configured, left all parameters at default and generated. After that, I opened the Visual Studio 2008 Command prompt and tried to build the projects separately, according to the build order of ALL_BUILD. The first one, ZERO_CHECK, worked fine. Next was DCMTK, therefore I typed: vcbuild /errfile:C:\MITK\errfile-vcbuild.txt /htmllog:C:\MITK\htmllog.html C:\MITK\MITK-repository\MITK-superbuild\DCMTK.vcproj This results in a crash. No bluescreen, no freeze, it's just shutting down, as if I would just press the power button. errfile-vcbuild.txt is empty after this, but in an earlier try, where I accidentally had Qt 4.8.4 for VS2010 installed, it complained very often about missing iostream.h htmllog.html says someting like: Creating temporary file "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\BAT00000164403932.bat" with contents [...] Creating command line "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\BAT00000164403932.bat" Creating temporary file "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\BAT00000264403932.bat" with contents [...] and so on, and at the end: Creating command line "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\BAT00000664403932.bat" Creating temporary file "C:\Users\***\AppData\Local\Temp\BAT0000076 So apparently it was interrupted, but I see no error message... I began to work with Visual Studio 2010 Express, but someone here in the mailing list recommended VS2008, so i deinstalled 2010 and continued with 2008. Hope someone can help :) Best Regards, Martin -- Martin Tatzber Student der FH Technikum Wien Matrikelnummer: 1010227025 Lehrverband: 5D2 -- ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Master Visual Studio, SharePoint, SQL, ASP.NET, C# 2012, HTML5, CSS, MVC, Windows 8 Apps, JavaScript and much more.
