[vtkusers] VTK 5.2 ImagePlaneWidget.py crashes

[Carl Trapani]

Hi David,

Here is command line error:

-------------------
vtkpython 
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTK\Examples\GUI\Python\ImagePlaneWidget.py
alloc: invalid block: 10089F90: 1 0

This application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual 
way.
Please contact the application's support team for more information.
-------------------

I see part of an error in a vtkOutputWindow:

-------------------
ERROR: In ..\..\VTK\IO\vtkVolume16Reader.cxx, line 355
vtkVolume16Reader [01D3FDB8]: Can't find file: ../../../../VTKData/Data/hea
-------------------

I can't see anymore of the file name, but it looks like it can't find 
the headsq data because it has one too many .. .

Here is my directory structure:

C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2  <--containing directory for 5.2
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTK <-- source
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTKBuildVC9  <-- build
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTKBuildVC9\bin\Debug  <-- vtkPython.exe
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTKData  <-- data
C:\projects\vtk\vtk-5.2\VTKData\Data\headsq  <-- headsq data

I did NOT build the examples ... I'm trying to run them as they are in 
the source dir tree because the build was taking soooo long. Perhaps 
that is my problem? I will try building examples and running them and 
let you know if I get same errors ... but that will take at least an hour++.

Thanks!!
Carl
