[Insight-developers] Vector name clash

[Lydia Ng]

Hi,

There seem to be a clash on the name Vector between
itk::Vector and itk::VectorContainer.

I get errors when I try to compile the following
(error message attached below) :

#include "itkVector.h"
#include "itkVectorContainer.h"

void main()
{
  itk::Vector<float,2> tempVec;
}

It this only a problem in VC++ ?

Also, the error goes away if you swap the order of
the header inclusion.

Cheers,
Lydia
