It sounds like you're trying to build using ProjectBuilder. The default template creates some files along with a simple main.c source file. Note that VTK is written in C++, so you'll need to make sure that you're compiling in C++ mode. The easiest way to do this is to rename main.c to main.cxx (or even better, create a different file with a more appropriate name for your application and use that instead of main.c), then the compiler will automatically switch modes and link against the correct libraries.

Hope this helps,
Chris
