[vtkusers] Deleting unknown object: vtkObject - vector of pointers?

[Bill Lorensen]

David,

Here are your files with my changes. The deleting unknown message was
because vtkDebugLeaks uses the vtk factory mechanism to keep track of
references. You need to add to your .cxx
vtkCxxRevisionMacro(vtkLidarPoint, "$Revision: 1.1 $");
and
vtkCxxRevisionMacro(vtkRay, "$Revision: 1.1 $");

and your .h

  vtkTypeRevisionMacro(vtkLidarPoint,vtkObject);
and
  vtkTypeRevisionMacro(vtkLidarRay,vtkObject);
to your classes.

I made some other small changes also.

Bill
