There really is no sematic difference between VTK in Tcl and C++. It is
just a matter of learning to translate one to the other. To give you the
idea from the example:

vtkCurvatures curve1
    curve1 SetInputConnection [cleaner GetOutputPort]
    curve1 SetCurvatureTypeToGaussian

vtkCurvatures curve2
    curve2 SetInputConnection [cleaner GetOutputPort]
    curve2 SetCurvatureTypeToMean

whould be written is C++ as:

vtkCurvatures *curve1 = vtkCurvatures::New();
curve1->SetInputConnection(cleaner->GetOutputPort());
curve1->SetCurvatureTypeToGaussian();

vtkCurvatures *curve2 = vtkCurvatures::New();
curve2->SetInputConnection(cleaner->GetOutputPort());
curve2->SetCurvatureTypeToMean();

The only other thing to remember in the C++ code is to call *->Delete()
when finished with the object. Alternatively you can use Smart Pointers
to manage deletion.
