Summary of Changes
VTK 6.2 (git master)
- Under Cocoa, removed "-fobjc-gc" as a default compiler flag. VTK still supports Cocoa garbage collection, but you must specify it yourself now.
- Added a reader/writer for NIFTI image files.
VTK 6.1
- Move to use CMake's external data support over VTKData
- OpenGL error detection and reporting macros and error cleanup
- API for dealing with OpenGL driver bugs
- Enable rendering with OSMesa where possible
- Surface LIC parallelization and features for interactive tuning
- SMP framework introduced to make shared memory parallel development
- Fixed compiler/linker errors when building against OS X 10.9 SDK. Fixed other errors building against llvm's libc++.
- Support for unicode text when a suitable font file is used in vtkTextProperty.
- Wrapper support for header files with C++11 syntax.
- Better Java support and install rules
- Depth peeling support for ATI devices
