[vtkusers] Vtk programming on Mac OS X with Xcode

[Jing LI]

Thanks for prompt replying. 

I just would like to run the vtk tutorial codes Cone.cxx on Mac using Xcode.


I started the Xcode, from File->New Project->C++ Tool, and entered the name
for the project as vtkcone1.

Deleted the main.cxx from the vtkcone1 project, and added Cone.cxx to the
project, set the Header Search Paths to the VTK include path, and built it.
The build was succeeded. Then I ran it, it gave out the error message:

"ZeroLink: unknown symbol '_ZN13vtkConeSource3NewEv'

Vtkcone1 has exited due to signal 6 (GIGABRT)."

I checked the ZeroLink flag, it is unchecked. I dragged the vtk*.a from
VTKBuild/bin to the Xcode project, and rerun it. It gave out the error

"
ZeroLink: unknown symbol '_CFConstantStringClassReference'

Vtkcone1 has exited due to signal 6 (SIGABRT). 
"

Any idea about it? How to fix it?

I greatly appreciate your help.

How hard this will be depends on how much "Windows" specific C++ code  
you used. If you just stuck to generally accepted C++ and the VTK  
toolkit, just rerun cmake on your CMakeLists.txt file to generate  
Xcode projects and compile. If you did NOT use CMake for your  
projects then you will have a tougher time getting the Xcode projects  
setup.
