[Gregory Bleiker]

Dear all
I have a question regarding the nightly sources... are they purely for the developers, or can "ordinary" users try to compile their code and should have some success? I've been trying to do so for a few days now and altough I can always compile the VTK sources with cygwin and W2K, I never get my program to work with the code I've written (a small stl reader). Is this the expected outcome? I've tried the unix and the windows sources, both with equal results.

Greetings
Gregi
