[vtk-developers] VTK Wrapping

[Bill Lorensen]

David,

I just did a pull followed by a make.
Then another make.
The second make did not rebuild anything.
Fedora Core 13, gcc 4.4.4
Cmake 2.8.2-rc2
VTK_WRAP_TCL:BOOL=ON
As I expected.

Then did
cmake ../VTK
make
Nothing was rebuilt.
As I expected.

Bill
