[vtkusers] porting to windows

[Louis Desjardins]

Hi vtkusers...

boy am I having a heck of a time porting my application from linux to 
windows.. :( :(

I am using VC++ 6.0 on windows.

When I bulit the vtk library using CMake, I set the flag 
"VTK_USE_ANSI_STDLIB"  to true, because I need to have <iostream> and 
<fstream> and <sstream> etc declared without the '.h'

However... now I get the following 22 errors when I compile just one of my 
many classes! (copied and pasted to the end of this email)

The vtk errors point to the vtkIOStream class wherever they  have 
declarations like "using std::bla"

Has someone run into this problem before????? I feel like I have tried 
everything!! (god I hate porting!)

Any help is really appreciated!!

Thanks!
