Event Timeline
hm some issues that i discovered during the superbuild im my VM:
- CableSwig is still not downloaded from mitk.org (is it available now?)
- There is yet no patch step for Windows Debug builds nor is the superbuild tested on windows (i will do that)
- Strangely, i activated MITK_USE_Python but the VTK was built without Python support
- I will push some bugfixes concerning the previously used MITK_USE_PYTHON flag which caused the MITK Python wrapping not to be built in my first try. furthermore with use of an external gdcm, the gdcm include directories must be added to mitkCorePython lib
- python-numpy is mandatory and libgtk2.0-dev is very useful for the OpenCV Python Wrapping, maybe we can somehow enforce this by the superbuild
- lastly, most critical: in the current CTK HEAD there is no PythonShell anymore. i will try to find an alternative. for the MITK workshop i used an old fork of Danial Saruji (which also contains a bugfix for the old python shell): https://github.com/saruji/CTK.git
aja and the several that must be added to PYTHONPATH to work correctly:
in the end, this was the shell script used to start the ExtApp with Python support (i already started to create a CMake Template for this):
export PYTHONPATH=/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/MITK-build/bin:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/VTK-build/Wrapping/Python:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/VTK-build/bin:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/ITK-build/bin:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/ITK-build/Wrapping/WrapITK/Python:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/OpenCV-build/lib:/home/mbi/11-05-28_29-MITK-Schulung/python-scripts:$PYTHONPATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/MITK-build/bin/BlueBerry/org.blueberry.osgi/bin:/home/mbi/MITK/bin-MITK/VTK-build/bin:$LD_LIBRARY_PATH
./ExtApp
Resetting all bugs without active assignee flag to "CONFIRMED". Change status to IN_PROGRESS if you are working on it.
just some notes to not forget important todos:
cableswig is found and build by mitk but the path is not set automatically. furthermore the cableswig source must be uploaded to mitk.org
further todo: remove duplicated cmake files, remove unnecessary cmake code, still an error with vtkCommonPythonD
add itk,vtk,opencv paths to the pythonpath env variable when loading mitk python wrappers
nearly finished, gui working again, OpenCV integration untested, untested on windows. generation of mitk.py which sets the PYTHONPATH for itk and vtk works, but the initial setting of PYTHONPATH to mitk.py is still not done yet
ok works fine now. in the snippets there is one more bug (removing does not work). test opencv integration, merge and push next time
nice-to-have:
- add more conversion methods, especially wrap mitkOpenCVVideoSupport
- make wrapping nicer, e.g. default arguments for methods must be solved in some way
