[vtkusers] error in vtk building

[Luca Cinquepalmi]

Hi users, when I compile vtk with cmake in Windows, the following error 
occurs:

CMake Error at C:/Programmi/CMake 
2.8/share/cmake-2.8/Modules/TestBigEndian.cmake:44 (MESSAGE):

no suitable type found

Call Stack (most recent call first):

CMake/CMakeBackwardCompatibilityC.cmake:31 (TEST_BIG_ENDIAN)

CMakeLists.txt:428 (INCLUDE)


What does it mean? shall I modify some option? thanks

Luca
