The different type of modules supported by Slicer can easily be built outside of the Slicer source tree.
The following examples are specific to unix-like platforms and can easily be adapted for Windows.
Assuming the source code of your module is located in folder MyModule, externally building modules could be achieved doing:
$ mkdir MyModule-build $ cd MyModule-build $ cmake -DSlicer_DIR:PATH=/path/to/Slicer-Superbuild/Slicer-build ../MyModule $ make
For this to work, in addition to invoke cmake_minimum_required at the top of the top-level CMakeLists.txt, it's important to make sure the following line are added after setting MODULE_NAME:
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
if(NOT Slicer_SOURCE_DIR)
find_package(Slicer REQUIRED)
include(${Slicer_USE_FILE})
endif()
For example:
cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8.8) <- - - - ADD THIS
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
set(MODULE_NAME MyModule)
set(MODULE_TITLE ${MODULE_NAME})
string(TOUPPER ${MODULE_NAME} MODULE_NAME_UPPER)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
if(NOT Slicer_SOURCE_DIR) <- - - - - - - - - - ADD THIS
find_package(Slicer REQUIRED) <- - - - - - - ADD THIS
include(${Slicer_USE_FILE}) <- - - - - - - - ADD THIS
endif()
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
add_subdirectory(Logic)
#-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
set(MODULE_EXPORT_DIRECTIVE "Q_SLICER_QTMODULES_${MODULE_NAME_UPPER}_EXPORT")
[...]
