Build fails during cmake due to Hausdorff binary

[MarkBergman-cbica]

Describe the bug
Building from source, following instructions in 5_

-- Trying to find DCMTK expecting DCMTKConfig.cmake - ok
-- Downloading pre-compiled hausdorff
-- [download 0% complete]
...
-- [download 100% complete]
-- Extracting pre-compiled hausdorff
CMake Error at src/applications/CMakeLists.txt:247 (CONFIGURE_FILE):
  Syntax error in cmake code at

    /cbica/home/bergman/comp_space/CaPTk/CaPTk/src/applications/CMakeLists.txt:247

  when parsing string

The "strings" that follow in the errors from cmake are binary data.

It looks like the content of the binary file is being used in CMakeLists.txt, not the filename:

    243   IF( NOT EXISTS "${FILE_TO_EXTRACT}" )
    244 
    245     # copy from LFS folder
    246     IF( EXISTS ${LFS_FILE_TO_CHECK} )
    247       CONFIGURE_FILE( ${LFS_FILE_TO_CHECK} ${FILE_TO_EXTRACT} )
    248     ENDIF()

Just did a clean CMake config and it succeeded without issue:

(base) patis@/cbica/home/patis/projects/captk_myFork/bin>$ cmake ..

Paging @CBICA/devteam to see if anyone can replicate this.

[AlexanderGetka-cbica]

I can replicate the issue Mark is experiencing from a completely clean build. CONFIGURE_FILE is attempting to parse over the binary data. To prevent this you can add COPYONLY to the call on line 247:
CONFIGURE_FILE( ${LFS_FILE_TO_CHECK} ${FILE_TO_EXTRACT} COPYONLY )

Putting this here just in case anyone else wants to attempt this while I figure out the other errors I'm getting with the build on the cluster.

[AlexanderGetka-cbica]

BTW, the latest errors are along the lines of the below repeated for a bunch of different targets. All can't find Eigen.

CMake Error at cmake_modules/CaPTk_macros.cmake:19 (ADD_EXECUTABLE):
Target "BreastTexturePipeline" links to target "Eigen3::Eigen" but the
target was not found. Perhaps a find_package() call is missing for an
IMPORTED target, or an ALIAS target is missing?
Call Stack (most recent call first):
src/applications/BreastTexturePipeline/CMakeLists.txt:21 (CAPTK_ADD_EXECUTABLE)

EDIT: Configure succeeds, this happens during generation step.

Even I can replicate the error. Here's a screenshot of configure step.

Clicking on 'Configure' again without changing anything, the errors go away and the 'configure' step succeeds.

Clicking 'Generate' then gives Eigen errors as for @AlexanderGetka-cbica

[AlexanderGetka-cbica]

Maybe this is relevant? Seems like a weird conflict between how Eigen's CMake configuration works and the particular eigen package installed.

[ashishsingh18]

Seems very relevant - same error.
Looking deeper into the superbuild, specifically at OpenCV, it looks like it is picking up Eigen3_DIR from '/usr/share/eigen3'

[PhucNgo1711]

This issue with Eigen not being picked up properly was there when I tried to build with older superbuilds on the cluster too.

This issue with Eigen not being picked up properly was there when I tried to build with older superbuilds on the cluster too.

Yes, I remember.
