[vtkusers] vtk5.6.1 compile error on mac os x 10.6.8

[Jinghua Ge]

Dear David,

I can see how the ActiveTcl/tk can cause the problem I had.
I deleted the Tcl/Tk I installed and am using the system Tcl/Tk now.

I set Cocoa ON and X off.

This time I have error messages like this:

/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include/tkIntXlibDecls.h:669:
error: declaration of C function ‘void XSetDashes(Display*, _XGC*,
int, const char*, int)’ conflicts with
/Developer/SDKs/MacOSX10.6.sdk/usr/include/X11/Xlib.h:3219: error:
previous declaration ‘int XSetDashes(Display*, _XGC*, int, const
char*, int)’ here

What did I miss?

Thank you!
