[vtkusers] error in python wrapping - MSVC 7.1 - unresolved external

[alexandre gouaillard]

dear all,

I am experiencing troubles in wrapping a VTK-compliant class in python.
The class was compiling without any problems under MSVC 6 (full updates).

I am using vtk 4.5.0 recompiled using CMAKE (1.8p3) for MSVC .NET (to bypass
the stdlib problem).

here are my strange link problems:

AdaptiveRemeshPyInit.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol
_PyVTKClass_AdaptiveRemeshPyNew referenced in function

vtkAdaptiveLinearSubdivisionFilterPython.obj : error LNK2001: unresolved

\../python/vtkSnake3DSovitaPy/AdaptiveRemeshPy.dll : fatal error LNK1120: 5
unresolved externals

I checked the correponding dll (vtkCommon.dll and vtkFiltering.dll) with
dependecy walker and indeed the methods I can find there are different (3
args instead of two) :
?PrintTrailer at vtkObjectBase@@UAEXAAV?$basic_ostream at DU?$char_traits at D@std@@@
std@@VvtkIndent@@@Z
?PrintHeader at vtkObjectBase@@UAEXAAV?$basic_ostream at DU?$char_traits at D@std@@@s
td@@VvtkIndent@@@Z
?PrintSelf at vtkPolyDataToPolyDataFilter@@UAEXAAV?$basic_ostream at DU?$char_trai
ts at D@std@@@std@@VvtkIndent@@@Z

anyone got any idea about what s going on , and how to fix it ?
