| − | '''Doesn't work:''' There is a CMake pseudo-dependency which causes the Slicer3 configure stage to report an error and abort the build. This can be subverted manually but there are dll errors when loading Slicer.

| − | To start, checkout the Slicer3 source using svn (SlikSVN is added to system path by default).
| |
| − | *run cmd (cmd.exe, the windows command line. In Win7 just type "cmd" at the Search bar; in WinXP go to "Run Programs" and then type "cmd")

| − | *Select Generator "Visual Studio 10"
| |
| − | It should automagically detect git, cvs, and svn. If not, turned Advanced options on and manually select the svn and cvs executables from SlikSVN and CVSNT directories respectively (C:\Program Files (x86))

| |
| − | At this point if there are no errors, all of the configuration steps should be complete. To build:
| |
| − | *Go to the build directory entered above (C:\cmn\dev\SlicerBUILD)
| |
| − | *Open Slicer3.sln This should open in visual studio or Visual C++ express.

| |
| − | * Visual Studio will fail to build if the CMake configure step returns an error, even if this error is non-fatal. For example, with the current (10/18/2010) Slicer trunk this error is reported by the configure step (from the VS Buildlog.htm for project 'Slicer3'):

| |
| − | Project : error PRJ0019: A tool returned an error code from "Performing configure step for 'Slicer3'"
| |
| − | </pre>
| |
| − | This error is not fatal, but it will raise "error level 1" and cause the VC buildscript to exit. It is possible to make the build finish by manually executing the steps found in Buildlog.htm after the configure step. However, Slicer gives a number of errors upon startup about bad DLL loading.. I think it is missing dll manifest information since the install step was not properly run.
