[vtkusers] Troubles with New() and vtkTypeMacro

[Heidler, Kirstin (GE Oil & Gas)]

Hello,

 

I am having some troubles with this header file:

 

#ifndef VTKKEYPRESSINTERACTORSTYLE_H

#define VTKKEYPRESSINTERACTORSTYLE_H

#include <vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera.h>

#include <vtkSmartPointer.h>

#include <vtkObjectFactory.h>

#include <vtkPolyData.h>

#include <vtkSetGet.h>

#include <vtkObject.h>

class vtkKeyPressInteractorStyle : public
vtkInteractorStyleTrackballCamera

{

public:

    static KeyPressInteractorStyle* New();

        vtkTypeMacro(vtkKeyPressInteractorStyle,
vtkInteractorStyleTrackballActor);

};

#endif // VTKKEYPRESSINTERACTORSTYLE_H

 

The complier says there is an Error with the New() function. Supposedly
there is a ';' missing before the '*'.

I don't get why though. So this cannot be the source of the error.

With the vtkTypeMacto the IDE(qtCreator) says there is a ';' too many
but on the other hand the compiler says a ';' is missing before the
superclass identifier. Also it says types are missing, so it assumes
int.

 

I cannot understand what else I would need to include for this to work?
I tried including vtkSetGet.h because it is supposed to hold the
definition of vtkTypeMacro.

 

I am pretty sure this a really dumb mistake I made. I copied the code
from here: http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK_Coding_Standards: 
 

class VTK_COMMON_EXPORT vtkBox : public vtkImplicitFunction

{

public:

  vtkTypeMacro(vtkBox,vtkImplicitFunction);

  void PrintSelf(ostream& os, vtkIndent indent);

...

}

 

If I do need to add type definitions which types would it be?

 

Thank you very much,

Kirstin
