[vtkusers] Difficulties migrating from vtk5.10.1 to vtk6.1.0 (MSVC++)

Hi all,

I am (desperately)  trying to migrate my application from 5.10.1 to 
6.1.0, and so far without any success.
I guess the problem comes from the fact that my application is compiled 
and linked with MSVisualStudio, without any use of CMake (though I 
obviously use CMake used to compile vtk librairies).

Typically, I tried to follow what is mentionned on the wiki, i.e. adding 
the following 2 lines at the beginning of header files that #include vtk 
objects:
#define vtkRenderingCore_AUTOINIT 
4(vtkInteractionStyle,vtkRenderingFreeType,vtkRenderingFreeTypeOpenGL,vtkRenderingOpenGL)
#define vtkRenderingVolume_AUTOINIT 1(vtkRenderingVolumeOpenGL)

But this does not work. I also try to add paths for include files, 
without success. For instance, compiling a simple file, the compiler 
complains with:
fatal error C1083: Impossible to open include file : 
'vtkRenderWindowInteractor.h : No such file or directory

So I'm completely lost. Is there any available example (using MSVC++) of 
a simple project successfuly migrated in vtk6.

Thanks in advance for any tip advice
Pof
