[vtkusers] lib or dll?

[sbe]

thank you for your help but it did not work, it looks like the header force to do a dynamic link?!

if you look in vtkwin32header.h:

it include vtkconfigure.h which has:

#define BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
#ifdef BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
#define VTKDLL
#else
#define VTKSTATIC
#endif

then back to vtkwin32header.h:

#if defined(WIN32) && !defined(VTKSTATIC)
 #define VTK_EXPORT __declspec( dllexport )
........

#else

 #define VTK_COMMON_EXPORT
......

so, I don't know which these are doing there? even if I comment out the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS and leave VTK_STATIC, it still search for dll (I did rename vtkcommon.dll to vtkcommon2.dll to test that).

Anyways, that's not my main problem, but if it could be solve, I would appreciate any help!
thank you.

  Serge,
  Try this:
   
  In the menus go Tools->Options->Show directories for:"Library Files" and add the directory path to the libs.
   
  Now go Project->Settings, click the Link Tab and type in the name of each *.lib that is in the directory path you added above (except the Python libs of course)
   
  You can also use CMake to have a project generated for you auto-magically. Joseph

    Hi,

    When using vc 6.0 under windows, I create a simple project, add an example picked from the examples directory, add all the static library (*.lib), then run it and the application ask for dll!? how come? how can I link statically without using the dll's?
