[vtkusers] Re: QT and VTK or where to get QVTKWidget?

[Michael Dussere]

Hi Alex,

The integration of Qt support in the VTK library is a new feature, but 
it works fine. You will find more information about this in the VTK 
mailing list archive, but basically you have to :

1 - get the CVS version of VTK (or wait for the next release)
2 - make sure you enable the Qt compilation options for VTK (it should 
be GUI_SUPPORT and GUI_QT or something like that)

If you have have some other questions about VTK and Qt you should try 
the vtk mailing list.
