Build Instruction

Linux / Mac OS X

First, obtain the source code from the repository using Git. To simply download the code, run the following command from a terminal:

$ git clone https://github.com/openigtlink/OpenIGTLink.git

Then configure using CMake. The library requires CMake version higher than 2.4.

$ mkdir OpenIGTLink-build
$ cd OpenIGTLink-build
$ cmake -DBUILD_EXAMPLES:BOOL=ON ../OpenIGTLink
$ make

You may install the library into your disk (optional). The default target directory is /usr/local, but you can configure it from the CMake configuration screen. To install the files, run

$ make install

You might need super user access.

Windows

• Download the source code from Git repository.
  • URL of repository: git://github.com/openigtlink/OpenIGTLink.git
• Run CMake
  • Where is the source code: C:\Devel\OpenIGT\OpenIGTLink
  • Where to build the binaries: C:\Devel\OpenIGT\OpenIGTLink-build
  • Click "Configure" and select your compiler (usually just click "OK")
  • Message: "Build directory does not exit, should I create it?" - click "OK"
  • Click "Configure"
  • Click "OK" to close CMake
• Start Visual C and compile the project (C:\Devel\OpenIGT\OpenIGTLink-build\OpenIGTLink.sln) If all went OK you will have the executable and the library:
• C:\Devel\OpenIGT\OpenIGTLink-build\bin\debug\igtlSocketTest.exe
• C:\Devel\OpenIGT\OpenIGTLink-build\bin\debug\OpenIGTLink.lib
