Problem by installing VTK on Solaris 2.5.1

[Tobias Hoevekamp]

Hi there,

I've been trying to install VTK but in the end - after getting
mesa, tcl8.3.1, tk8.3.1 installed - it seems to be some 
compiler problem that keeps me from entering the real of
beauty. (I have had some experince with AVS :-)

As indicated in the installation guidelines, I did

   setenv PATH /usr/local/bin/:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin
   setenv CXX /usr/local/bin/gcc
   setenv CC /usr/local/bin/gcc

(setenv CXX /usr/local/bin/gcc CC /usr/local/bin/gcc ./configure
 did not work)

ran

   ./configure --with-tcl --with-mesa

I edited 

   user.make (you can see my changes in the attached file) 

and finally typed

   make

with the following result

   raider# make
   /usr/local/bin/gcc -o targets ./targets.cxx ./makedepend.cxx
   ./makedepend.cxx:7: fstream.h: No such file or directory
   *** Error code 1
   make: Fatal error: Command failed for target `targets'

The environment variables used were

   HOME=/
   HZ=100
   LOGNAME=root
   PATH=/usr/local/bin/:/usr/sbin:/usr/bin:/usr/ccs/bin
   PS1=# 
   SHELL=/sbin/sh
   TERM=sun-cmd
   TZ=MET
   PWD=/
   USER=root
   CXX=/usr/local/bin/gcc
   CC=/usr/local/bin/gcc


Is there anybody who could help me with my problem?

Thank you very much.


With best regards,
