[vtkusers] Re : where is vtkstd/string?

[Amy Squillacote]

Hi Mark,

Make sure that your VTK *build* tree is in your include path; this is in 
order for your compiler to find vtkstd/string, which is configured in 
your VTK build tree. You will also need to have VTK/Common in your 
include path in order for the compiler to find vtkStdString.h.
