Hi David,
You hit the problem. I took the Paraview directory out of PATH environment
variable and plug in VTK 5.2 dlls. It did the trick. All is due to the
environment set up!
It appears you recommend to leave the env variable untouched, but would
rather copy dlls into the .exe directory. But the problems is that for every
project using vtk I have to copy them. Isn't that awkward? What is the
disadvantage of setting environment variables?
Thanks for all help,
Ming
