VTK 3.1.2 and Java

[David D. Marshall]

For some reason, dependencies are not used in building the java classes and
thus it is trying to build vtkProp before vtkActor2D :(.  There was a
discussion about this problem a few months ago, but the mail archive is
worthless, and my email archive is at home.  Try setting all of the java
variables in user.make in the root vtk directory.  Hopefully some else will
fill in the blanks, if not I will email you more info when I am home this
weekend.  Sorry I couldn't be of more help.
