[vtkusers] VTK Compile DirectX and GPU

[Alex Southern]

Hi,

Im having trouble compiling my programs with vtk. I'm using the simple 
example from here,
http://vtkblog.blogspot.com/2007/04/install-build-vtk-from-source-in-visual.html

I've used Cmake and built and installed VTK and generated both the 
release and debug versions of the libraries and includes files and I 
have added the path to include and lib paths to Tools->Options->Project 
and Solutions->VC++ Directories.

When I compile the simple example I get the following error messages in 
both Debug and Release modes. My system is Windows 7, Visual Studio 2008 
and the new NVIDIA GTX 480, I mention this because there is reference to 
'GPUinfolist'.

Any suggestions about this?
