Build error on MacOSX and Linux with ITKPython enabled

Alex_Vergara · June 25, 2018, 11:35am

Same setup here

Operating system: OSX 10.13
Slicer: Newest nightly (Jun 25 2018)
Qt: Qt5 web installer (last)
CMake: 3.11.0
Xcode: 9.4.1

but my errors are at DCMTK package.

It makes more sense to have this as its own topic. I think the solution to this problem is going to be very different than the solution to mine was, though I can’t immediately see what it is.

One thing that did end up helping in my case was to avoid using Xcode. I changed my CMake configuration to generate unix makefiles, and I started the superbuild with ‘make’ from the terminal.

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 7:35am

Ok after some very deep digging I found the problem was the use of native icu library within the ofstd piece within DCMTK. Simply putting DCMTK_WITH_ICU to OFF and DCMTK_ENABLE_CHARSET_CONVERSION to inside DCMTK-build folder ccmake configuration, allows the compiling of DCMTK package. Now another error arises, I will keep searching for a solution

I was able to build DCMTK in the current Slicer master (this hash) on Mac without problems, and without changing any of the default configuration setting.

macOS: 10.13.5
Xcode: 9.4.1
clang: Apple LLVM version 9.1.0 (clang-902.0.39.2)
cmake: 3.11.4

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 2:09pm

Ok, above error is caused by the Slicer_BUILD_ITKPython option set to ON. After this the support for I18n should be disabled if you don’t have English system (the vtkMRML piece will complain about non existing file

make[5]: *** No rule to make target `/Users/alex/GIT/slicer/Libs/MRML/Widgets/Resources/Translations/qMRMLWidgets_fr.ts', needed by `Libs/MRML/Widgets/qMRMLWidgets_fr.qm'.  Stop.

) This must be fixed since it allows python use of ITK in plugins.

When you set Both options to OFF slicer starts compiling up to the MRLM package which complains about vtkMultiVolume.h was not built. Still digging

fedorov · June 26, 2018, 2:14pm

I confirm I did not change the default OFF setting for this option.

fedorov · June 26, 2018, 2:48pm

@Alex_Vergara note that there are 2 mechanisms that expose ITK in python in Slicer:

SimpleITK (enabled by default)
ITKPython (disabled by default)

Perhaps you have a reason to access 2, but I wanted to make sure you are aware of 1.

Here’s the explanation of @thewtex about the differences between these two wrappings (from his response on LinkedIn to my question about the blog post announcing ITK python):

The relative pros are,

For itk:

Covers the entire toolkit, including processing with PointSet’s, Mesh’s, SpecializedCoordinatesImage, etc.

Retains the pipeline so very large images can be analyzed through streamed processing

The wrapping and packaging for externally developed modules is straightforward and can be built on free GitHub CI services (documentation for this is in progress)

For SimpleITK:

It does not have the pipeline but has a procedural interface, which is more intuitive out of the gate for folks coming from the Matlab world

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 3:45pm

Thank to both of you. I have handled all the build errors except the vtkMultiVolume one. I still don’t know which option to set in VTK to enable the build of it. copying from GitHub doesn’t work since it now complains about

In file included from /Users/alex/GIT/slicer/Modules/Loadable/VolumeRendering/MRMLDM/vtkMRMLVolumeRenderingDisplayableManager.cxx:52:
/Users/alex/GIT/build/slicer/VTKv9-build/Rendering/Volume/vtkMultiVolume.h:82:51: error: only virtual member functions can be marked 'override'
    void SetProperty(vtkVolumeProperty* property) override;

fedorov · June 26, 2018, 3:48pm

I think this might be the feature that is still being developed, and maybe some issues have not yet been identified. @cpinter should be able to comment on this one most authoritatively.

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 3:54pm

Ok just to start to, the default PythonQT configuration uses python2.7 (impossible to change right now) while VTK9 highly encourages python3 flavor, just a glitch.

I can’t see the vtkMultiVolume.h file in the default VTK clone from Slicer, it is in GitHub otherwise. maybe the problem is only to update VTK.

I see my problem, I left the VTK_MAJOR_VERSION in 7 which does not contain the vtkMultiVolume.h thing, changed to 9 and voilà. I think version 9 shall be the default to prevent this issue, since the MRML module explicitly depends on it.

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 5:36pm

it is like the QVTKWidget is not built

Alex_Vergara · June 26, 2018, 6:37pm

hm I erased the whole CTK folder and relaunched the build and apparently the PythonQT library was not built in my previous try when I changed VTK versions so CTK is building now.

Apparently everything is fine now, except for the high annoyance that some parts are made with python 2.7 (like PythonQT) and others are made on python3 (like VTK).

cpinter · June 26, 2018, 10:46pm

The error comes from including a VTK header, in which a virtual function is overridden without specifying the virtual keyword in the subclass. This being an error seems to be excessive, and also seems to be compiler specific. In any case, this is a bug in VTK core.

For reference, this line throws the error

overriding this function

Alex_Vergara · June 27, 2018, 8:40am

Everything compiled fine but when I launch slicer then this happens

I think it is something related with QT not found in path or something

Alex_Vergara · June 27, 2018, 10:50am

OK, fresh clone (today 27/June/2018), QT5 in custom folder installed from QT5 network installer,

in ccmake unmark SimpleITK, mark PythonQT, leave unmarked ITKPython as won’t work.

now it runs smoothly. Plugins downloaded from extension manager are not loading

Plugins from the extension manager are not generally compatible with a local build, you need to build them locally also.

Alex_Vergara · June 27, 2018, 1:06pm

I just do

echo "export DYLD_FRAMEWORK_PATH=/Users/alex/Qt/5.11.1/clang_64/lib" > /Users/alex/.bash_profile

and everything magically starts working

edit: Actually it only worked temporarily since this only affects bash, for it to work completely you shall add this to ~/.MacOSX/environment.plist

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

Yes, on Mac technically you can do that (or fix the RPATH manually). It’s not a supported configuration so YMMV – don’t complain if the nightly build ABI changes and it stops working
