[vtk-developers] VTK 5.0 link error (MinGW, shared libraries)

[David Akers]

Hello,

I'm trying to build VTK 5.0.0 shared libraries using a MinGW/Cygwin (gcc 
3.4.5) system. Everything proceeds just fine until I try to link 
vtkFiltering.dll. I get numerous errors (copied below, all related to 
undefined references to vtkDataArrayTemplate methods). Any ideas would 
be greatly appreciated! I have no problems with static linking - just 
creating shared libraries. I also get the same problem using Cygwin's 
compiler with the '-mno-cygwin' option.

Thanks!

Dave
