How to Try Protocol Version 2 using OpenIGTLink Library

The OpenIGTLink Protocol Version 2 is still in a draft phase, but you can try some of new features using The OpenIGTLink Library. Here're some tips.

Build Instruction

The OpenIGTLink library is available at NAMICSandBox (http://svn.na-mic.org/NAMICSandBox/trunk/OpenIGTLink). You can download using Subversion client. If you are using a terminal on Linux or Mac OS X, do:

cd <working directory>
svn co http://svn.na-mic.org/NAMICSandBox/trunk/OpenIGTLink OpenIGTLink

The next step is to build the library with example programs. In the default setting, message types defined as part of version 2 will not be compiled. To use them, OpenIGTLink_PROTOCOL_VERSION_2 option should be turned on when you configure the source code. If you are using cmake tool in a terminal, do:

mkdir OpenIGTLink-build
cd OpenIGTLink-build
cmake -DBUILD_EXAMPLE:BOOL=ON -DOpenIGTLink_PROTOCOL_VERSION_2:BOOL=ON ../OpenIGTLink

Once the library is successfully built, the all example programs are in <working directory>/OpenIGTLink-build/bin
