Compililation problems

[Donald Tournier]

Hi!

I want to use VTK on both linux PC's and Sun Solaris (Ultrasparc), but I
am getting compilation errors for both of them:

On the Sun, I simply typed:
env CXX=/usr/local/bin/g++ CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc ./configure
make

The compilation fails in the graphics/ directory. This is the message
displayed:

-----------------------------------------------
/usr/local/bin/g++  -g -O2 -DVTK_WORDS_BIGENDIAN  -DVTK_USE_PTHREADS   -D_HP_NO_FAST_MACROS -DHAVE_LIMITS_H -DHAVE_UNISTD_H -I.   -I. -I./../graphics -DVTK_USE_GRAPHICS -I./../imaging -DVTK_USE_IMAGING  -I/usr/openwin/include   -I./../common -I/home/ausab
le/software/src/tcl7.6/tk4.2/generic -I/home/ausable/software/src/tcl7.6/tcl7.6/generic   -I/home/schroede/montnaro/Python-1.4/Include -c vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx -o vtkGraphicsFactory.o
vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx: In function `static class vtkObject * vtkGraphicsFactory::CreateInstance(const char *)':
vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx:181: `vtkXRenderWindowInteractor' undeclared (first use this function)
vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx:181: (Each undeclared identifier is reported only once
vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx:181: for each function it appears in.)
vtkGraphicsFactory.cxx:181: parse error before `::'
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `vtkGraphicsFactory.o'
Current working directory /opt/vtk/graphics
*** Error code 1
make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `build_graphics'
----------------------------------------------

Also, I don't know how to tell configure to use the xgl library. Maybe
someone can tell me?

For the Linux PC (running SuSE linux), I typed:

env CXX=/usr/bin/g++ CC=/usr/bin/gcc ./configure --with-mesa
--with-contrib --with-patented
make

This also failed in the graphics/ directory, probably at the equivalent
point. This was the message:

---------------------------------------------

---------------------------------------------

I have the feeling these two problems may be related. If anyone has an
idea which could help me, it would be really appreciated.

Thank you very much,

Donald.
