[vtkusers] Newbie Needs example code for slider bars

[Anja Ende]

Hi Ashish,

In the project PRO file (this is used when you run qmake) command, you will
need to specify where the vt include and lib files are.

Below, I am attaching the relevant sections from my PRO file. As you can see
the LIBS directive tells QT the vtk libs I am using in my project and the
INCLUDEPATH also includes the path to the vtk includes.

LIBS += -lvtkWidgets \
-lQVTK \
-lvtktiff \
-lvtkjpeg \
-lvtkexpat \
-lvtkMPEG2Encode \
-lvtkIO \
-lvtkRendering \
-lvtkGraphics \
-lvtkImaging \
-lvtkftgl \
-lvtkfreetype \
-lvtkFiltering \
-lvtkCommon \
-lvtksys \
-lvtkDICOMParser \
-lXt \
-lvtkpng \
-lvtkzlib

INCLUDEPATH += ../src \
/usr/local/include/vtk-5.0

In addition you must export the QTDIR and PATH variables and set the
LD_LIBRARY_PATH . In Linux, the best place is the .bashrc file. I am not
sure about windows but probably it is the environment variables.

My .bashrc file looks like:

export QTDIR=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4
export QTDIR

export PATH=$PATH:/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.1.4/bin/
export PATH
export LD_LIBRARY_PATH=$LD_LIBRARY_PATH:/usr/local/lib/


I hope this helps you.

Cheers,
Anja
