You need to load the Java libraries.
Add a static block to your code, and load all the libraries you need. For
example:
static {
System.loadLibrary("vtkCommonJava");
System.loadLibrary("vtkFilteringJava");
System.loadLibrary("vtkIOJava");
System.loadLibrary("vtkImagingJava");
System.loadLibrary("vtkGraphicsJava");
System.loadLibrary("vtkRenderingJava");
}
