[vtkusers] Local classes

[David J. Netherway]

Hello,

I am using a cvs download of late last week.
I have successfully build vtk on a linux PC.
I am now trying to set up a Local directory for my own classes following
the procedure in the README.html file.
I recognise that there seems to be 3 methods suggested.
(a) the README.html method
(b) VTK/Build/vtkLocal
(c) VTK/Build/vtkMy
I have successfully used (b) and (c) under windows on vtk versions of
about a year ago. In setting up under linux
I am using (a) which suggests putting ones classes into VTK/Local.

I seem to be having a problem with  the definition of VTK_LOCAL_EXPORT.

How is this set using method (a) or is something else going on?

Is there a preferred method for setting up local classes ?

Thanks, David
