[vtkusers] VTK and the STL

[Berk Geveci]

Hi Fred,

Cc'ing vtk-developers. I suggest using #include <vtkstd/vector.h> or
#include <vtksys/stl/vector.h>. Directly including the the STL headers
is not always portable. As for the difference between these two, there
really isn't any. One comes from the system library, kwsys, included
by VTK, the other one is VTK's own implemented before kwsys.
