[vtkusers] Performing Test Support for 64 bit file systems: Failed

[Bryn Lloyd]

Hi

 

 

I was building VTK 5.8 for my system (Windows 7 64-bit, Visual Studio 2010,
CMake 2.8.x).

 

I noticed there is a suprising message in the output of cmake at
configuration time:

 

-- Performing Test Support for 64 bit file systems

-- Performing Test Support for 64 bit file systems - Failed

 

What does it mean? How can I resolve this issue? Why does the test fail?

 

 

I noticed in my previous installation of VTK 5.6.1 I also had this message.

 

Thanks

Bryn

 

 

Ps. This is how I configured VTK in a batch file:

 

cmake -G "Visual Studio 10 Win64" ^

-DPYTHON_EXECUTABLE=%PYTHON_DIR%/python.exe ^

-DPYTHON_INCLUDE_DIR=%PYTHON_DIR%/include ^

-DPYTHON_LIBRARY=%PYTHON_DIR%/libs/python27.lib ^

-DVTK_WRAP_PYTHON=ON ^

-DVTK_USE_TK=OFF ^

-DVTK_USE_GUISUPPORT=OFF ^

-DVTK_USE_RENDERING=ON ^

-DBUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON ^

-DBUILD_TESTING=OFF ^

Here is the section in the log file:
