== Within a Slicer build-tree, where are located Slicer modules ? ==
Slicer module executables and libraries are located in your main Slicer build directory <code>Slicer-Superbuild/Slicer-build</code>. Refer to [[Documentation/{{documentation/version}}/Developers/DirectoryStructure|Directory Structure]] description for more details.

== How to build module outside of Slicer source tree ==

Follow [[Documentation/{{documentation/version}}/Developers/Build_Module|developers guide for building modules]]

== How to modify local version of External module ==

Some Slicer modules (such as OpenIGTLink and OpenIGTLinkIF) are built as External git projects by CMake scripts in the Slicer/SuperBuild directory.
The SuperBuild process may refresh from the repository unexpectedly, overwriting any local changes. To avoid this, comment out the git settings
in the appropriate external build file while making local edits. For example, in SuperBuild/External_OpenIGTLinkIF.cmake:

{|
|<pre>
GIT_REPOSITORY "${git_protocol}://github.com/openigtlink/OpenIGTLinkIF.git"
GIT_TAG "f9b65b1ffd2992862025f3c6ec5fe30e6f5dd395"
SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${proj}</pre>
|<pre>
# GIT_REPOSITORY "${git_protocol}://github.com/openigtlink/OpenIGTLinkIF.git"
# GIT_TAG "f9b65b1ffd2992862025f3c6ec5fe30e6f5dd395"
SOURCE_DIR ${CMAKE_BINARY_DIR}/${proj}</pre>
|}
