One of the people in my lab looked into this a couple of years ago. We
didn't wrap ITK, we wrapped the C programs that
call the program which uses ITK. So if we view this
program structure as a hierarchy, ITK is at the bottom level
(level 4), the registration program is at level 3. The C++ programs
that use VTK and make calls to the registration program are at
level 2. And the IDL program is at level 1. To build the bridge
between C++ code and the IDL program, the book "Calling
C from IDL" by Ronn Kling is the book to read. Another
challenging task is to enable VTK and ITK data communication.
Grace, the programmer responsible for the work, never tried calling
ITK directly from IDL.....she decided that it would be too complicated
since itk is heavily templated.
She got a registration program to work OK but it was very cumbersome
and everytime IDL was updated the links to the dlls etc got broken and
now I'm not sure I can run the code at all!
It would definitely be great if ITK were properly wrapped in IDL. At
the moment we're having to look at alternatives to IDL to accommodate
an increasing use of itk routines!

From ITK mailing list I received this great help!
---------- Forwarded message ----------
Luis,
Please find attached to this message a documentation for producing IDL
bindings for OTB <http://www.orfeo-toolbox.org>. OTB is based on ITK,
so
the procedure described here can be applied without any major change.
This doc has been prepared by the OTB development team together with
people from ITTVis France.
I hope that this helps you.
