After casting the ImageType to a new data type, ConnectedComponentImageFilter still raising " error: conversion from ‘itk::Concept::IsInteger<float>"

Beginner Questions
#1

I have defined the input ImageType as float and the OutputImageType for the ConnectedComponentImageFilter according to the link:

typedef float PixelType;
constexpr unsigned int Dimension=3;
using ImageType=itk::Image<PixelType ,Dimension>;
using ReaderType=itk::ImageFileReader<ImageType>;

using OutputImageType = itk::Image<unsigned short, Dimension>;  // Output type for ConnectedComponentImageFilter

However, I get the following error.
Then, according to this link, I created an intermediate image type (unsigned short same as output of CCFilter) for casting from input ImageType of ConnectedComponentImageFilter (CCFilter) to the OutputImageType.

 typedef itk::Image< unsigned short, 3> InternalImageType;
        typedef itk::CastImageFilter< ImageType, InternalImageType> CastingFilterType;
        CastingFilterType::Pointer castFilter = CastingFilterType::New();
        castFilter->SetInput( image );
        castFilter->Update();
        using ConnectedComponentImageFilterType = itk::ConnectedComponentImageFilter<InternalImageType, OutputImageType>;

        ConnectedComponentImageFilterType::Pointer connected = ConnectedComponentImageFilterType::New();
        connected->SetInput(castFilter->GetOutput());
        connected->Update();

I am still getting the error:

/usr/local/include/ITK-5.0/itkConceptChecking.h: In instantiation of ‘void itk::Concept::IsInteger<T>::Constraints::constraints() [with T = float]’:

       IntegralT a = TrueT();
                           ^

What could be the reason for this?
Thanks

Are you trying to instantiate ConnectedComponent filter using float image somewhere else (main.cpp, line 612, column 38)? That would explain the error.

Thanks a lot sir I could solve the issue
