Hello,

please use "answer all" if you want to answer. Otherwise your answer will not be visible on the vtkuser mailing list!

I don't know enough about cmake, sorry. But I recommend to use the cmake-gui that comes with cmake, to generate the installation.

Good luck,
Sebastian

Hey,

There is one more thing. As per the tutorial the 'make install' copies all the header files at

~/Development/VTKBuild/include/vtk-5.1

So I tried finding this location and got to know that in my VTKBuild I have multiple copies of the same file. For ex. flags.make has 50 copies?!?!?! So does the include folder! and none of them really has the vtk-5.1 directory.

Hey,

I got that fixed. But there is a new issue now!

After the 'make' when I say 'make install' it completes the process but with following error.

CMake Error at cmake_install.cmake:31 (FILE):
  file INSTALL destination: ~/Development/VTKBuild/lib/vtk-5.6 is not a
  directory.


make: *** [install] Error 1

And then when I try building the SimpleCocoaVTK project I get the following error:

Check dependencies

[BEROR]error: There is no SDK with the name or path '/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.4u.sdk'

I am pretty sure these are co-related. But am just unable to find out how... :|

Thanks anyway,

Hi,

I'm not a Mac OS/X user but it's similar to linux systems. Everything in your own risk!

Try this command in terminal, it should list these files if they are installed on your pc:
   locate stdio.h stdlib.h string.h | grep include

If the files will be listed, you may have to add their path to your environment path. Don't know anything about this, but a short google search will solve this problem.

What I found out is that these tools are installing the needed files into /usr/include/ dir on your mac:
http://developer.apple.com/technologies/tools/


I hope this helps!
Good luck!

I am installing VTK on my MAC OS X as per the step by step instructions given in the tutorial.

I have first installed the CMake. Then created the directory VTKBuild as instructed. Everything goes fine.

I made the changes in CMakeCache.txt

on cmake ../VTK all build files get written to VKBuild.

But it gives error on make.

There are many errors of the form:

/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:50:39: error: stddef.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:51:38: error: stdio.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:52:42: error: stdlib.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:53:54: error: string.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:54:44: error: sys/time.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:55:43: error: sys/types.h: No such file or directory
/Users/pebble/Development/VTK/Utilities/kwsys/ProcessUNIX.c:56:37: error: sys/wait.h: No such file or directory

and so on...

Please tell me where am I going wrong.
