The tedious compiling from VTK source is gone by the help of ParaView 3.8.0 developer distribution. By simply installing ParaView 3.8.0 developer distribution, we can develop C++ program with VTK, run VTK python script in external python interpreter, and extending ParaView.

This document is based on Windows 32bit OS, and ParaView 3.8.0 developer distribution(ParaView-Development-3.8.0-Win32-x86.exe). The compiler should be Microsoft Visual Studio 2008 SP1 (MSVC 2008), which is used compiling the distribution.

Three prerequisites are DirectX SDK, Qt, and Python distributions. The tested versions are

- MS DirectX SDK (June 2010) - Qt 4.6.3 (qt-win-opensource-4.6.3-vs2008.exe from [1]) - Python 2.6.5 (python-2.6.5.msi from [2])
