[vtkusers] VTK Starting Problems

[Ketan Mehta]

Hi,

I think your code has already been used to create dsw files on different machines.

You can try to delete ur copy.
Get new copy of source code and unzip it.
Go to top level where you have CMakeLists.txt and execute cmake.
You should have *.dsw files for complete project.

Or In case you are trying to build only examples then you can safely delete
all files except *.cxx , *.h and CMakeLists.txt and then use cmake.
