[vtkusers] Using Cmake for VTK + Qt applications on a Mac

[Matthias Riechmann]

Hi Shiram,

I'm working on an application depending on Qt, VTK and ITK alltogether 
and so far I didn't encounter any principal problems building it with 
CMake except maybe some pitfalls at the beginning. And it's really 
platform independant, I have compiled applications on Windows, Mac OS 
and Linux.
What might help for finding your problem: Post your CMakeLists.txt and 
maybe the UseVTK.cmake that causes so much trouble. Which version of VTK 
are you currently using?


Matthias
