[Insight-developers] itk+vtk vtkMultiThreader.h Problem

[Andrew MacKelfresh]

I have been developing an application that integrates itk with vtk and I 
came accross an error within vtkMultithreader.h.  The error is as follows:

error C2872: 'ThreadInfoStruct' : ambiguous symbol

It seems that vtkMultithreader is a copy of itkMutlithreader and this
struct is defined with the same name in both places.  ThreadInfoStruct is
a global struct.  I resolved the problem by changing the scope of the
struct within vtk from global to protected within the class - the struct
is only used by protected methods and so this works fine.  I do suppose
though that this same problem might resurface within this class and its
other globals.

Should this struct also be moved from global to protected within itk also?
