[vtkusers] VTK and Winforms integration

[Andres Felipe Ruiz]

Thank you all for yor help, but now I am facing another different problem.
I was able to include the VTK window in a Windows Form form from c++. I am
trying to get the example of the sphere to work, but there is some casting
I have not been able to do.

I would like to cast a Kitware::VTK::vtkRenderWindow to a vtkRenderWindow
that is usted in this
<http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Examples/Cxx/GeometricObjects/Sphere>
example

Thank you all very much for your help!.
