[vtkusers] VTK and QT on Windows2000

[Danny Allen]

Thanks to Dave Pont  and Sagi Schein for your suggestions - I did manage
to fix the problem in the end if anyone is interested:

The problem was simply a conflict between single and multi threaded
libraries. I'd built VTKQT using tmake with the '-t vclib' option to
create a VisualC++ project file (only for VC++5, but VC++6 converts it
for you). The resulting library is single threaded, so I had to go to
the Project Settings dialog and under the C/C++ tab in 'Code Generation'
change use runtime library to 'Debug Multi Threaded DLL'.

I did also try editing the VTK.pro file used by tmake to generate the
.dsp file to include a multi threaded option, but the resulting .dsp
file crashed Developer studio - no idea why but the above alternative
seems to work.

Is there a way of integrating VTK and QT on Windows 2000 ? I've tried
using VTKQT by Matthias Koenig but I can't get it to work on my system.
I can successfully build VTK, QT, and VTKQT on my machine, and I can
build applications using either VTK or QT. However, when I try and bring

them altogether in an application that links to all three libraries I
get link errors whose cause are beyond my meager programming skills.
There basically seems to be some conflict between VTKQT.lib and
msvcprtd.lib. Are there some compiler switches I need to tweak, or is
there an alternative to VTKQT that I might have more luck with ?

I'm using VTK4.0, QT2.3.0 and Visual C++6.0 Developer Studio.
