Documentation/Labs/NUMPY171

Goal

• Slicer is currently building Numpy 1.4.1. We would like to upgrade to a more recent version of Numpy to bring the latest and greatest of Numpy to Slicer community.

Issues

• http://www.na-mic.org/Bug/view.php?id=3158
• http://www.na-mic.org/Bug/view.php?id=3159
• http://www.na-mic.org/Bug/view.php?id=3160

Possible approaches

• Keep the current version and back-port to vs2010/12 support.

• Use different version for windows (1.7.1) and unix-like (1.4.1) system.

• Ideally, use 1.7.1 on all platform/compiler.
