Hi,

I tried to use VTK and Java with MacOX 10.2.8 some time ago. After a lot 
of messing about I got VTK 4.2 to build with Java 1.4.1. This involved 
hacking the code to fix one of the headers but I thought that fix was 
incorporated into the VTK source

Unfortunately I never got anything that would run. Even the simple cone 
drawing examples refused to work (crashed, hung, drew the window and 
deleted it before drawing the cone on the desk top...). I don't have the 
knowledge of the Mac needed to debug it so I gave up. If you figure out 
how to get it working please let me know!
