[vtkusers] Building 64bit vtk on Vista using Visual Studio 2008

[Bogdan Munteanu]

I am trying to build the 64 bit version of vtk on Windows. I am using:

 

- vtk 5.4.0

- cmake 2.6.4

- Visual Studio Team System 2008 SP1

- Windows Vista Ultimate with Service Pack 1

 

In a cmd window I set up the environment for a 64 bit build using:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\VC\vcvarsall.bat" amd64

 

,after which I launched cmake (GUI version).

 

After running config in cmake I got the following set of options: 

 

CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER             - C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual
Studio 9.0/VC/bin/amd64/cl.exe

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS                - /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /Zm1000 /EHsc /GR

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_DEBUG          - /D_DEBUG /MDd /Zi /Ob0 /Od /RTC1

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_MINSIZEREL     - /MD /O1 /Ob1 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELEASE        - /MD /O2 /Ob2 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_CXX_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO - /MD /Zi /O2 /Ob1 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD_LIBRARIES   - kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib
winspool.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib comdlg32.lib
advapi32.lib 

CMAKE_C_COMPILER               - C:/Program Files (x86)/Microsoft Visual
Studio 9.0/VC/bin/amd64/cl.exe

CMAKE_C_FLAGS                  - /DWIN32 /D_WINDOWS /W3 /Zm1000

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG            - /D_DEBUG /MDd /Zi  /Ob0 /Od /RTC1

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_MINSIZEREL       - /MD /O1 /Ob1 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE          - /MD /O2 /Ob2 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO   - /MD /Zi /O2 /Ob1 /D NDEBUG

CMAKE_C_STANDARD_LIBRARIES     - kernel32.lib user32.lib gdi32.lib
winspool.lib shell32.lib ole32.lib oleaut32.lib uuid.lib comdlg32.lib
advapi32.lib 

CMAKE_EXE_LINKER_FLAGS         - /MANIFEST /STACK:10000000 /machine:x64

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_DEBUG            - /debug /INCREMENTAL:YES

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_MINSIZEREL       - /INCREMENTAL:NO

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELEASE          - /INCREMENTAL:NO

CMAKE_C_FLAGS_RELWITHDEBINFO   - /debug /INCREMENTAL:YES

 

It looks like cmake picks up properly the 64 bit compiler and linker (i.e.,
cl.exe in amd64 folder) but the compilation/link flags look like targeting a
32 bit platform (e.g., the platform constant is WIN32, while I would have
expected WIN64) and all .lib files specify the 32 bit version.

 

Is there something I am missing here?

 

Thank you,

 

Bogdan
