花了将近一周的时间的，终于在VS2010成功的编译了最新版的3D Slicer 4.7.0，感觉快要崩溃了。Slicer用了20多个外部的库，全都要一起编译，完整编译一次起码要七八个小时，光VS的Output输出窗口有十万多行，复制到txt中，文本内容居然有26MB之多，可怕！经过台式机和笔记本分别进行多次编译，出错，改错，再编译，再出错，再改错。。。总共编译了有二三十次，终于在台式机上成功了编译了Slicer，感觉眼泪都要掉下来了，下面整理下成功编译的心得，希望给他人开路，不要再像博主这样无数次尝试：
1. 下载Slicer的最新代码 (https://github.com/Slicer/Slicer)
2. 下载Qt 4.8.6 (https://download.qt.io/archive/qt/4.8/4.8.6/)，博主编译的是32位的，所以这里下载的是x86-vs2010版本的
3. 下载最新版的CMake 3.7.2， 注意这里一定要下载最新版本的，因为用老版本很可能会出错！
4. Slicer的编译路径要尽可能的短，最好就放在某个盘的根目录，比如code放在 C:/Slicer，编译的文件放在C:/build。(血与泪的教训啊，如果路径名太长，会在编译的时候可能会找不到某些头文件)
5. 在用Cmake配置的时候，取消 Unselect Slicer_USE_NUMPY, 因为编译这个很有可能会出错，而且一般情况下我们用不上，所以不用选。
6. 然后就是在打开Slicer.sln后，选择Release模式，进行编译。
下面是楼主在编译的过程中遇到的错误，以及改正方法：

Solution:
Make the path short for CMake! For example, put Slicer source code at C:/Slicer, put the build files at C:/build
成功编译后得到如图所示的界面：
