@Stefan: itk_zlib.h should be in the libinsighttoolkit-dev package. If you run sudo apt-get install libinsighttoolkit-dev itk_zlib.h should be in /usr/include/InsightToolkit/Utilities/

I’m trying to build an application using the itk zlib. Unfortunately I’can’t find the corresponding header file itk_zlib.h with your build version of itk 3.16. Am I missing something?

Can you make available the build tools that create these packages?

I’m already using python-vtk, will your packages clash with it?

Thanks for the resource!

All of the source and debian build settings are available in my repository. If you are in ubuntu or debian, just add my repositories as described in this article then:

apt-get source insighttoolkit
apt-get source python-insighttoolkit-extras

This will download all the source to the current directory. There is a good intro on how to make the packages from this source here:

https://wiki.ubuntu.com/PackagingGuide/Complete

Good luck, and if you need help send me an email.

In fact, python-vtk is a dependancy of my python-insighttoolkit-extras package. Check out my tutorial Getting Started with Python-InsightToolkit on how to communicate between itk and vtk in python.

Hi,
does anybody have any tips how to get eclipse or netbeans to autocomplete the itk python functions?
ipython2.5 on ubuntu jaunty works fine, and does autocomplete itk stuff: for instance writing:
imageReader = itk.ImageFileR[tab] expands to ..Reader, however this never happens in eclipse or netbeans, even though they autocomplete regular python stuff.

Hi,
I used your packages in Intrepid with much success – thanks very much. I tried installing them in Jaunty, which successful installed, but I can’t import the module (”import itk”) in ipython. It states there is no module called itk. Is there something simple I’m missing or will the intrepid package just not work in jaunty?

Thanks.

I am putting together the Jaunty packages at the moment. The reason itk does not work in jaunty is because of the switch from python 2.5 to 2.6. Python2.5 should still be installed on you system, and if you start python2.5 instead of python, the itk packages are available.

To get itk working in python 2.6 is a simple fix, but I would recommend just waiting for me to release packages for jaunty.

Hi. A real beginner here I’m afraid. I installed ITK via your repository.

I’m now trying to run the first program from the ITK documentation.

The documentation says I must specify the directory where ITK is built and when I try and run the Cmake file I get “ITK not found”.

Can you let me know what directory I should use?

Thanks

Ben
