[Ves] Migrating to VTK

[Carlos]

Hey Casey,

 

Thank you for your answer. I didn’t know it. 

I remember that at the beginning, I modified some of the VES code and it was very painful to test it. This is why I sent the comment.

Anyway I think this will not be such a big problem like in VES as the VTK code can be reused from a desktop app and then using XCode / Eclipse to create the interface. 

 

in IOS I manually created a XCode project in order to be able to modify and debug the VES/KIWI libraries it and when I read that it was not possible to have a Xcode project for VTK I thought about the big effort to do it again. 

 

I will check your proposal it but first I have to migrate to VTK 6.2 in my desktop code.

 

Thanks again.

 

Carlos

I would like to ask if in the near future it could be possible to compile VTK in XCode as one of the main limitation during the development of VES / Kiwi applications was the difficulty for debugging and I think that the way proposed in the blog maintains these difficulties as it builds VTK independently.

 


I may have missed some details in recent threads, but it should be possible to debug an application from xcode even if the libraries/frameworks were compiled from the command line (outside xcode).  As long as the right build type is used Debug, or RelWithDebInfo for the library it should be capable of being debugged from a separate XCode project.  I know that for for some projects, I compiled VES as a library twice once in Debug mode and once in Release mode for final delivery.  The same should be possible with VTK.  I may be missing some details, but I believe what you want should be possible in the current workflow.


Hope that helps.
