[Ves] Using KiwiViewer to load a DICOM file

Pat, I had other question? Why did you build kiwi in different parts: one
with the Mac terminal (where ves-ios-device and ves-ios-simulator are
built) and the other with Xcode when you run and built the kiwi program?
Are you able to compile everything only in Xcode or not? I am asking you
this because I am trying to read the dicom file in a different way.

The thing is when I included the header vtkDICOMImageReader.h in
the vesKiwiDataLoader.cpp file from your project and compiled the files
using the mac terminal I didn´t have any building errors. However now when
I include the same header file in a .mm file which I created in a new
project with the paths and libraries set correct, I am having building
erros in files which belong to the c++ libraries from the iOS
SDK (specifically stl_algobase.h and char_traits.h, I got semantic erros
like undeclared identifier 'ostreambuf_iterator' ).

Do you need to put the incude files in .cpp files and build
them separately from the project?

Best Regards
