[Ves] Compiling VES on iOS

Fri May 23 09:04:01 EDT 2014

Alessanro,

You should normally have to add the include path for each framework as you
have done.  I assume you also included the vtk.framework headers?  You will
see the same in the KiwiSimple and KiwiViewer projects.

Another option that you may investigate is how to compile each file. I
forget the name of the option, but its something like compile each file as
objective-c / objective-c++ or by file type.  My experience has been best
when I use "by file type".  You do have to be careful then that any ves/ves
header is included in a file with .mm extension.  You can get strange build
errors if some of the eigen headers get included in a file with .m
extension.

Do you have a project file you can share?
