[vtkusers] compiling issues

Tue Mar 17 11:16:20 EDT 2009

Yifei,

The easiest way to use VTK to generate your own projects is through the use
of cmake, http://www.cmake.org/.  If you built VTK, you should already be
somewhat familiar with the use of cmake.  For more information and to get
started, look at your vtk source tree under VTK/Examples/Build.  The
directories vtkMy and vtkLocal are good starting points for the generating
your own projects.
