[vtk-developers] stubs enabled vtk libraries

[Goodwin Lawlor]

Hi All,

I have some patches for CMakeLists.txt, cmVTKWrapTcl2Command.c,
vtkTkRenderWindowWidget and vtkTkImageViewerWidget that allow the vtk tcl
wrappers to be linked against the Tcl/Tk stubs libraries.

The advantage is that the vtk tcl libraries can be loaded by tclkit, now the
standard way to produce wrapped tcl applications (starpacks, cf
http://www.equi4.com). Dependent libraries can't be wrapped, so
vtkCommon.dll etc must be in the path somewhere.

To produce a stubs enabled version of vtk, there's a TCL_TK_STUBS flag to be
set in cmake and link against tclstub84.lib and tkstub84.lib.

I dont  know if this would be a worthwhile addition or more hassle than its
worth.
