[vtkusers] Compile VTK on VS2010

[Massinissa Bandou]

Hi

I formatted my computer and successively Installed win7 Professionel  
64Bits instead of premium version which I had before and now  
everything is working Now, I can build ITK & VTK without problem!
I'm keeping to learn ITK & VTK According to this web site:  
http://www.itk.org/ITK/help/tutorials.html
I did the example of myProject.cxx of Getting Started II: Using ITK with VTK
It compiles with no error but when I run the executable, it crush  
instantly with an  error of invalid null pionter.
Do I need to add some C++ code to put an image (Brainslice.png) as an  
argument?
there is the original code:

#include "itkImage.h"
#include "itkImageFileReader.h"
#include "itkImageToVTKImageFilter.h"
#include "vtkImageViewer.h"
#include "vtkRenderWindowInteractor.h"


int main( int argc, char **argv )
{

typedef itk::Image<unsigned short,2>     ImageType;
typedef itk::ImageFileReader<ImageType>  ReaderType;
typedef itk::ImageToVTKImageFilter< ImageType>   ConnectorType;

ReaderType::Pointer reader = ReaderType::New();
ConnectorType::Pointer connector = ConnectorType::New();

reader->SetFileName( argv[1] );
connector->SetInput( reader->GetOutput() );

vtkImageViewer * viewer = vtkImageViewer::New();

vtkRenderWindowInteractor * renderWindowInteractor =  
vtkRenderWindowInteractor::New();

viewer->SetupInteractor( renderWindowInteractor );
viewer->SetInput( connector->GetOutput() );

viewer->Render();
viewer->SetColorWindow( 255 );
viewer->SetColorLevel( 128 );
renderWindowInteractor->Start();

return 0;

}


Thank you for your help!
