[vtkusers] error while using static libraries

[varshini varshini]

hai all,

I am using vtk for the past couple of months.I am able to compile and use 
successfully when I use shared libraries for one of my projects. But when I 
try to use static libraries I get linking errors.I have pasted the errors 
below:

error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: int 
__thiscall vtkXMLWriter::Write(void)" (__imp_?Write at vtkXMLWriter@@QAEHXZ)
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: 
void __thiscall vtkXMLWriter::SetByteOrderToLittleEndian(void)" 
(__imp_?SetByteOrderToLittleEndian at vtkXMLWriter@@QAEXXZ)
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: 
void __thiscall vtkXMLWriter::SetByteOrderToBigEndian(void)" 
(__imp_?SetByteOrderToBigEndian at vtkXMLWriter@@QAEXXZ)
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: 
void __thiscall vtkXMLImageDataWriter::SetInput(class vtkImageData *)" 
(__imp_?SetInput at vtkXMLImageDataWriter@@QAEXPAVvtkImageData@@@Z)
error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol "__declspec(dllimport) public: 
static class vtkXMLImageDataWriter * __cdecl 
vtkXMLImageDataWriter::New(void)" 
(__imp_?New at vtkXMLImageDataWriter@@SAPAV1 at XZ)
fatal error LNK1120: 5 unresolved externals


does anyone know how to remove these errors.

Thanks in advance
