[vtk-developers] Possible issue with the VTK Master

[Andrew Maclean]

OK ... I deleted the build directory and ran CMake again and things are
much improved. See:
http://open.cdash.org/viewTest.php?onlyfailed&buildid=2843128

However:
vtkpython TestProjectedTerrainPath.py
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "TestProjectedTerrainPath.py", line 15, in <module>
    lo = lindex(demReader.GetOutput().GetScalarRange(),0)
NameError: name 'lindex' is not defined

yet:

ctest -R TestProjectedTerrainPath
Test project /home/amaclean/Code/Kitware/build/VTK
    Start 674: vtkFiltersHybridPython-TestProjectedTerrainPath
1/2 Test #674: vtkFiltersHybridPython-TestProjectedTerrainPath ...   Passed
   2.24 sec
    Start 693: vtkFiltersHybridTcl-TestProjectedTerrainPath
2/2 Test #693: vtkFiltersHybridTcl-TestProjectedTerrainPath ......   Passed
   1.69 sec

100% tests passed, 0 tests failed out of 2

Could someone please point me to an explanation as to why ctest works, I
would have expected a fail at line 15 because of lindex(). My concern here
is that if it is Python code you would reasonably expect just Python code
lindex() is certainly not that.
I don't understand how these Python equivalents of the Tcl names are being
brought in by CTest.
