[vtkusers] How to specify the path to VTK in CMake?

[Cyrille Faucheux]

Here is the CMakeLists.txt from an example.

-----------------
PROJECT(Medical4)

cmake_minimum_required(VERSION 2.8)

FIND_PACKAGE(VTK)
IF(VTK_FOUND)
     INCLUDE( ${USE_VTK_FILE} )
ENDIF(VTK_FOUND)

INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(
     ${Medical4_SOURCE_DIR}
)

ADD_EXECUTABLE(Medical4 main.cpp)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(Medical4
     vtkRendering vtkGraphics vtkHybrid
     vtkImaging vtkIO vtkFiltering vtkCommon
     vtkVolumeRendering
)
-----------------

You may need to rebuild you app from zero if you want to change from 
win32 to x64.
