Obtaining the Source Code
-------------------------
Once you clone this repository, you'll have to also:

git submodule update --init --recursive

to get the code in ITKHelpers/ and ITKHelpers/Helpers/ that this code relies on.

NOTE: Although it depends on the ITKHelpers repository, this repository does not currently depend on the VTKHelpers repository.

If this command gives you trouble (known problem with mysysgit), instead of

git clone ...

use

git clone --recursive ...

and then no "git submodule update ..." is required.

Building
--------
This repository does not depend on any external libraries. The only caveat is that it depends
on c++0x/11 parts of the c++ language. For Linux, this means it must be built with the flag
gnu++0x. For Windows (Visual Studio 2010), nothing special is required.

Usage
-----
This repository contains functions that allow easy interfacing between VTK and ITK data structures.
Everything is in a ITKVTKHelpers namespace, and can therefore be used as follows:

#include "ITKVTKHelpers.h"

vtkSmartPointer<vtkPoints> points = vtkSmartPointer<vtkPoints>::New();
// ... fill points ...

std::vector<itk::Index<2> > indexList = ITKVTKHelpers::PointsToPixelList(points);
