[vtkusers] Where are the libraries?

[Barney Sperlin]

Thanks Jothy,
     I've loaded in VTK.sln into the IDE and tried to build it.  That also gives me errors.  When it comes to VTKCommon it complains about
6>Linking...
6>LINK : fatal error LNK1104: cannot open file '..\..\bin\Debug\vtksys.lib'

and there are missing _mingw.h files:
7>C:\Program Files\vtk-5.6.0\Common\windows.h(13) : fatal error C1083: Cannot open include file: '_mingw.h': No such file or directory

What steps have I skipped?  Is that how to build the libraries?

After Configure-->Generate, you have to build the vtk libraries in order to use them.

Hello,
     I downloaded VTK and CMake, then ran CMake and both "configure" and "generate" worked (both said "done" in the lower window of CMake).
     However, when I ran VS2005 Express with C++ and tried to get the project vtk_minimal to work the project compiles but doesn't link, stopping on the notice that vtkCommon.lib wasn't found.

     When I used Windows search it couldn't find it and, actually, I don't see any other such libs.  What do I need to do?
