Objective
We have created a list of outstanding CPack and CMake issues and bugs (see below) that we would like to get working by the end of the AHM.
Approach, Plan
Our challenge is to rework the existing CPack and CMake framework to incorporate bugfixes, and get Slicer3 to compile and pack with newer versions of the C-tools. Our main purpose at the Project Week is to collaborate on bugfixes and decide how to approach the issues.
Progress
January 2008 Project Week
During the project week, we fixed some outstanding CMake/CPack issues. These changes are not going to be back ported into CMake 2.4.2, but will be made available in future releases. Most of these issues will be resolved when Slicer moves to CMake version 2.6.0.
During the project meeting, we tagged the official Slicer version 3.0 release. The builds from this branch are the official stable release for Slicer 3.0, and are available here.
Outstanding CPack Issues and Bugs
Gathered for AHM 2008 in Salt Lake City.
Issues:
Katie is hand editing some ITK 3.4 files - niftilib and znzlib cmake_install.cmake files
- Katie is testing changes to ITK to fix this bug.
Jim and Sebastien - ongoing
RPM support needs testing / validation
- Awaiting CMake release 2.6.0
Some 32-bit Linux platforms are having trouble with self-extracting STGZ installer, see this bug report.
Windows installer is adding to the Path environment variable in spite of being told not to (seen on Slicer3 for Cmake 2.4.2 and 2.4.7)
Building Slicer3 against an installed VTK rather than a build tree causes trouble; see mail trail from slicer-devel.
- Sebastien is on the case, see bug report
C-tools vs. getbuildtest build strategies make continuing support for CPack and compiling difficult.
- CMake/CPack support for "NAMICSetup" executable instead of running ctest -S
- Like Cygwin setup - do you want to be: "End User", "Module Developer", "Dashboard", "Uber Developer"
- Need design requirements document/wiki page for NAMICSetup
- Timeline - 3-4 months?
