We recommend to use the MITK-ProjectTemplate approach to develop in or with MITK: https://github.com/MITK/MITK-ProjectTemplate (see README for instructions, very easy when you already built MITK).
It already has an example command line app in Modules/ExampleModule/cmdapps that is switched on by default. You could start by editing ExampleCmdApp.cpp. Loading and saving/converting files is as easy as the following example pseudo code: input = mitk::IOUtils::Load(“input.nrrd”); mitk::IOUtils::Save(input, “output.nifti”); Feel free to explore the files of the MITK-ProjectTemplate as they tend to include lots of code documentation to showcase basic MITK development.

I wanted to start by creating a small application, which for now, is supposed to read in nrrd images and with the help of certain libraries, for example vtk, transform them to other image formats. I guessed that building a new project with the plugin - generator, as you are showing on your web page, is a proper start to that (is that already a wrong assumption, for a project like this, should I proceed differently?). What I did is to follow the plugin-generator tutorial and create my project ("Angelov_Project") within a folder that i specified with the out-dir flag. I created a new build directory ("Angelov_Project_bin") for all the binaries... what I did afterwards is to build the project using cmake. I let all the preselected flags as-is and generated the project. I chose my project folder ("Angelov_Project") as my source directory and "Angelov_Project_bin" as my build directory. In the following I tried to build it within Visual Studio, which quickly results in the following errors: MSB6006, "cmd.exe" exited with code 1 MITK Microsoft.CppCommon.targets line 209 MSB6006, "cmd.exe" exited with code 1 Angelov_Project_configure Microsoft.CppCommon.targets line 209 I guess I am not understanding the whole build process correctly, I also guess that I should have, again (like in the tutorial), selected the MITK directory (where I checked out the suitable version as described in the tutorial) as the source directory and my project as an external directory, but I though it should be possible in another way, also because I don't want to build all the other stuff every time I start a project. Afterwards I saw the possibility of setting the EXTERNAL_MITK_DIR" flag, which, I thought, would solve the problem. This time, already the configuration with cmake fails, because there is no MITKconfig.cmake file inside the directory.... There only is a "MITKConfig.cmake.in", as I saw after looking inside. It looks like there is something I don't understand on starting my project and the involved build process, therefore I would appreciate if you could help me with that issue. I am looking forward to hearing from you soon. Kind regards Ivaylo Angelov
