You need to add the new Folder to the CMakeLists.txt in the Module directory as well as well. Open /Modules/CMakeLists.txt, it should be pretty clear how to add the Module, just insert it into the set(module_dirs) section. \code set(module_dirs ... NewModule ) \endcode Inside the folder create a new folder called "Testing", which will later contain the module tests. Also create subfolders for you sourceFiles, for example "NewModuleFilters" and "NewModuleSourceFiles". \subsection CreateCMakeLists 2) Create CMakeLists.txt Within your module create the following file named CMakeLists.txt with the following content: \code MITK_CREATE_MODULE(NewModule #<-- module name SUBPROJECTS INCLUDE_DIRS NewModuleFilters NewModuleServices #<-- sub-folders of module INTERNAL_INCLUDE_DIRS ${INCLUDE_DIRS_INTERNAL} DEPENDS Mitk #<-- modules on which your module depends on ) ADD_SUBDIRECTORY(Testing) #<-- Directory for tests \endcode Choose a fitting module name. This name should only contain Letters (both upper- and lowercase), no numbers, no underscores etc. This name will be used to qualify your Module within the MITK Framework, so make sure it is unique. Typically, the name will be the same as name of the Folder the Module resides in. It is good practice to create subfolders in your module to structure your classes. Make sure to include these folders in the List of subfolders, or CMake will not find the internal Files. In the DEPENDS section, you can enter the modules that your module requires to function. You will not be able to use classes from modules that are not listed here. \subsection Createfilesdotcmake 3) Create files.cmake Next, create a new file and name it files.cmake, containing the following: \code SET(CPP_FILES NewModuleFilters/File1.cpp NewModuleFilters/File2.cpp NewModuleServices/Filter1.cpp ) \endcode Add each .cpp file you create to this file. Also, only add you .cpp files here, not the header files! \subsection CreateTEstingEnvironment 4) Set up the Test environment +We also need to set up a testing environment where you can add your tests. Inside your "Testing" Folder, create a new files.cmake containing the following: \code SET(MODULE_TESTS mitkNewModuleTest.cpp ) +\endcode Also, create a new CMakeLists.text: \code MITK_CREATE_MODULE_TESTS() \endcode -*/ - That's it! Enjoy your new module! After following these steps, it should look something like this: \image html NewModule.png "Your shiny new module!" + +*/ \ No newline at end of file
