-= Build Requirements =
-== Compilers ==
-=== Linux ===
-* gcc 4.1 through 4.4
-=== Windows ===
-* VC8.0 (2005)
-* VC9.0 (2008).
-* Also MITK has been successfully compiled and run with the free-of-charge [http://www.microsoft.com/express/vc/Default.aspxMicrosoft Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition].
-* MinGW (gcc 4.4.0): With MITK 0.14 onwards, MITK can be compiled with gcc 4.4.0 on Windows using MinGW. See [[MinGW Instructions]] for details.
-=== MacOS ===
-[[MacOSX|Building MITK for MacOS]] contains a detailed description.
-== ITK Download ==
-We recommend to use the latest stable ITK version. Usually MITK is compatible with the latest two versions of ITK. BUILD_SHARED_LIBS must be turned ON.
-[http://itk.org/ITK/resources/software.html ITK-Download page]
-== VTK Download ==
-Currently, VTK version 5.2 or 5.4 is required. VTK_USE_PARALLEL, VTK_USE_HYBRID, and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS must be turned ON.
-If you want to use Qt for application development, compile VTK_USE_GUISUPPORT (advanced CMake option), VTK_USE_QVTK and VTK_USE_QVTK_QTOPENGL turned ON.
-[http://vtk.org/VTK/resources/software.html VTK-Download page]
-== CMake Download ==
-MITK requires the latest stable CMake release.
-[http://www.cmake.org/HTML/Download.html CMake-Download page]
-Windows installer packages can be built using the [http://nsis.sourceforge.net/Main_Page Nullsoft scriptable install system].
-== GUI-Toolkits ==
-The core MITK library is GUI-toolkit independent.
-The main example application ExtApp is implemented using Qt 4.5. It is currently under heavy development, since we only recently switched to Qt 4.
-Qt can be downloaded from Nokia [http://www.qtsoftware.com/downloads here].
-== OpenCV (optional) ==
-The Open Source Computer Vision library may be used for video playback in MITK, but is completely optional! Currently, only OpenCV 2 is supported as it is built with CMake and therefore easily integrated in MITK. To use OpenCV in MITK, follow these steps:
-* Download OpenCV from their [http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/ Website] for your OS
-* You may compile OpenCV from source or use an installer. When building from source, there are no special options you have to set in CMake, just two things to remind:
-** On Windows: Turn off "ENABLE_OPENMP" when you have built MITK without OpenMP support. If you are unsure, turn it off
-** On Linux: As there were issues with AVI playback, make sure to use OpenCV with FFMPEG on Linux. [http://opencv.willowgarage.com/wiki/FFMPEG Read here how to use FFMPEG with OpenCV]
-* (Re-)configure your MITK build: Open CMAKE and turn on MITK_USE_OPENCV. Then set OPENCV_DIR to the directory containing the OpenCVConfig.cmake file (should be found automatically if OpenCV was installed regularly)
-* Have a look into the module "OpenCVVideoSupport"
