[vtkusers] Need HELP with Boreland Free C++ 5.5 and VTK4

[Ravi Gupta]

Does anyone have a help page on building the VTK DLLs using Borland. All 
I need is the dlls hence my choice of the free compiler.

Windows 2000
VTK 4.n (Which compiles fine under VC++)
Borland C++ 5.5.1 for Win32, using dos prompt
CMake 1.4.3-patch (has the same errors as CMake 1.3 development)

MAKE Version 5.2  Copyright (c) 1987, 2000 Borland
Fatal: 'D:\rgupta\vtk4\VTK\Utilities\png\.NoDartCoverage' does not exist 
- don't know how to make it

I got past this error by editing the Make files. Not an elegant solution 
but I could live with it if I have to. Requires 8-10 files to be edited.

THE SHOW STOPPER IS AN UNRESOLVED EXTERN SYMBOL IN THE IO DIRECTORY 
FILES. Sorry lost the error but will re generate it if someone in 
the borland community can help me.

Thanks
Ravi
