Hi,
I tried to install vtk32 on Windows2000 NT following
installation instructions provided in the directory
- vtk-src-windows - as:
------------------------------------------------------------
PC Installation
The PC build process requires running a program to build dependencies and
makefiles. Then you use the compiler make utility to compile as follows.
1. Install vtk3.2 distribution by unzipping into the appropriate
directory.
2. Execute vtk\pcmaker\pcmaker.exe. This will pop-up a little
GUI that allows you to tailor the build. It then starts
building makefiles and dependencies. It will run for a couple
minutes depending on your system. You'll have to tell pcamaker
where you've placed your VTK source code, and where to build
the object code and dll's (we'll call it "vtkbin").
3. When pcmaker completes, start up a MS-DOS shell window
and change directories to vtkbin\vtkdll. Then run
"nmake" (Microsoft compiler). This will compile for
a LONG time. When it's done, you'll have a vtkdll.dll
file in vtkbin\vtkdll\obj. You can then move this
file into the appropriate system directory
(on Win95: Windows\System; on NT: WinNT\system).
4. If you want to use Tcl/Tk on your PC, repeat step 3 above
except work in directory vtkbin\vtktcl to create
vtkbin\vtktcl\vtktcl.dll. Remember to move this file into your
system area. (You'll also have to have Tcl (e.g., Wish)
installed.)
5. You can then link against vtkdll.dll (C++); or run Tcl
(wish). If you're running Tcl, make sure you start by
dynamically loading the vtktcl libraries with the command
"load vtktcl".
6. Enjoy.
We recommend a 300MByte minimum swap size or you'll have trouble during the
link phase.
------------------------------------------------------------
but it doesn't work, does anybody has an idea.
Thank you in advance
