# Ginkgo CADx #

## Preface ##

* The project had been abandoned by the original authors. Since the programs requires an OpenGL compatibility profile porting it to use current VTK versions would require porting it also to wxWindgets >= 3.1, which has not yet a stable API. Since my personal interest in this projecr is now zero, I archive this project.

## Introduction ##

Ginkgo CADx is an advanced DICOM viewer and dicomizer that can
also be used to convert png, jpeg, bmp, pdf, tiff to DICOM files.

The version developed here is a continuation of the now abandoned
free version developed by MetaEmotion:

## Build ##

To build Ginkgo CADx the following software packages are required:

* ITK (>= 4.8)
* VTK (>= 6.2), Please note that the code does currently not compile with the
  VTK OpenGL2 rendering backend (see #21 and #34). VTK >= 7.0 defaults to
  this newer backend when configured without parameters, and currently
  you will have to set VTK_RENDERING_BACKEND=OpenGL when building VTK to
  sucessfully compile ginkgocadx.
* wxWidgets (>= 3.0.1)
* DCMTK (>= 3.6.1-20150924)
* A C++ compiler that supports the *C++11* standard
* CMake

With these prerequisites available run *cmake* on the Ginkgo CADx
source tree and then use the selected build system to build the software.
After the software was sucessfully compiled run the install target:
```bash
mkdir build
cd build/
cmake ..
make
```

The original Ginkgo CADx implementation was done with cross-platform
compatibility in mind, i.e. the software should compile on MS Windows,
macOS, and flavours of Linux. However, currently the main development
platforms are Debian GNU/Linux and Gentoo Linux using the GNU gcc compiler
tool chain. Hence incompatibilities may creep in and bug reports with fixes
for other platforms are very welcome.

### Debian/Ubuntu specific build instructions ###

The following packages must be installed in order to compile it:

chrpath
    cmake
    libcairo2-dev
    libcurl4-gnutls-dev
    libdcmtk-dev
    libfftw3-dev
    libfreetype6-dev
    libgtk2.0-dev
    libinsighttoolkit4-dev
    libjsoncpp-dev
    libmysqlclient-dev
    libsqlite3-dev
    libssl-dev
    libvtk6-dev
    libwrap0-dev
    libwxgtk3.0-dev
    libxml2-dev
    libgdcm-tools

On Debian *Stretch* and *Sid* these packages can be installed by simply running:
```bash
apt build-dep ginkgocadx
```

Alternatively, if you don't have the src in your `sources.list`, the following
should enable you to install all the dependencies:
```bash
apt install chrpath cmake libcairo2-dev libcurl4-gnutls-dev libdcmtk-dev libfftw3-dev libfreetype6-dev libgtk2.0-dev libinsighttoolkit4-dev libjsoncpp-dev libmysqlclient-dev libsqlite3-dev libssl-dev libvtk6-dev libwrap0-dev libwxgtk3.0-dev libxml2-dev libgdcm-tools
```

On Ubuntu Xenial (16.04 )the package can be installed from the Xenial ports PPA:

https://launchpad.net/~gert-die/+archive/ubuntu/xenial-mia

For Yantal the package available from the usual Ubuntu repositories.
