[vtkusers] Using codes from vtk journals

[Sungmin Hong]

Thank you for replying so quickly, David.

I tried to follow your instruction and made .sln for PointSetProcessing, but
I got tons of errors when I built it with my VS2008.

Is there any possible solutions to fix this?

I think I am lost in very basic steps which you assumed that I already knew.

Thank you very much again for your reply, and your code also.

You do not need to put those files in the VTK directory. Each article should
come with an example, something like PointSet...Example.cxx.
There is an accompanying CMakeLists.txt which will find VTK and use it to
compile the article code (directly in the directory you downloaded it in) as
well as compile the provided example that demonstrates the functionality.

If you did want to place the files in the VTK directory so they compile
"inside" your VTK build, you would also have to add the cxx files to the
appropriate CMakeLists.txt file in the VTK/[directory] folder.
