I think I've done the update properly. At this point the build fails at: So this may depend on #1924 as it appears there's some bugs with NIFTI's usage of zlib? |
|
GDCM also fails to compile: Maybe you need to turn on some more backward compatibility options, in addition to |
|
COMPAT is on, otherwise nothing would work :-) they have a whole new API otherwise Historically there's a lot of "wrong" ways to use the zlib API that might be disallowed now. I'm gone camping now, I will return to this and Niftilib this weekend. |

# By Zlib-ng Upstream * upstream-zlib-ng: zlib-ng 2021-06-25 (c69f78bc)
|
Includes fixed. Liker fails out now: Need to check if the renaming internally to itkzlib-ng has broken something (either because incomplete or something hard-coded) |
|
It looks like the integrated zlib has been running with a bunch of custom patches: Will need to figure out which of these changes are needed now, or can be achieved in other ways, and maybe upstream some. At least some of this was done by @thewtex long ago. |
|
@gdevenyi thanks so much for making this happen! 🏅 We will need to still apply the symbol name mangling on top of upstream. This is required to prevent symbol conflicts when a binary links both itk-zlib-ng and zlib-ng. The CMake configuration ports likely need to be made on top of upstream, at least in some cases, so files are installed into the ITK module location, etc. |
It would make some sense to integrate this into upstream. Other projects could possibly benefit from this (at least VTK, probably some others too). |
Ok, opened an issue here zlib-ng/zlib-ng#1025, I'll see if I can figure out how to add it for review. |
|
Closing in favor of #2708. |
