Hello,
 
thank you for the quick answer.
I was trying to thoroughly understand the proper structure of an MITK project while building a small application, which is why I am asking questions that may seem
very basic. I looked throughthe example module and also played around with the cmd app, but I still have a question regarding the example module in contrast with
the tutorial steps.
I wanted to build a small application based on QT, much like the step1 - step8 programs in the tutorial.
Clearly, the structure of those is different than the one of the example module and, obviously, the one presented in the
module - creation - tutorial on your website
(there you propose the directory structure including autoload, cmdapps, ... and certain properties of the cmake files).
 
My question is, whether, in case of implementing a qt - based application, it is recommended to not use the module structure
(e.g. whether the tutorial is also a proposal of how to structure qt - based applications).
Or does it still make sense to create a module and, instead of the folder "cmd apps", maybe create an "application" folder
containing the UI - files (headers, source files and so on)?
 
Thank you very much in advance!
 
Kind regards

Betreff: RE: [mitk-users] building and setting up an own project with the plugin generator

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.

Subject: [mitk-users] building and setting up an own project with the plugin generator

 

Dear All,

 

after following the developer tutorial as well as the first-steps-projects I wanted to start working on my own project.

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
