Build Requirements

Compilers

Linux

MITK is successfully built using gcc 4.1 through 4.4.

Windows

MITK is developed and tested with VC7.1 (2003) and VC8.0 (2005). Also MITK has been successfully compiled and run with the free-of-charge Visual C++ 2008 Express Edition.

ITK Download

We recommend to use the latest stable ITK version. Usually MITK is compatible with the latest two versions of ITK.

VTK Download

Currently, VTK version 5.2 or 5.4 is required. VTK_USE_PARALLEL and VTK_USE_HYBRID must be turned ON.

If you want to use Qt for application development, compile VTK with VTK_USE_GUISUPPORT (advanced CMake option) and VTK_USE_QVTK turned ON.

Windows installer packages can be built using the 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 here.
