[vtkusers] vtk installation CMake java problem

[James Labiak]

Hi Seb,
The JOGL and SWT were red, so I thought that I needed them. I just want 
a standard installation that I can use in Java with Eclipse, then be 
able to distribute a program to another user. With them off, the 
installation seemed to work but a sample java file cone.java showed java 
path errors in Eclipse. I had set CLASSPATH sys var to 
C:\vtk_jar\vtk.jar;C:\vtk_build\Wrapping\Java; and included C:\Program 
Files\VTK\natives-Windows-AMD64 in the PATH variable as well as 
C:\jdk1.7.0_60\bin;C:\jdk1.7.0_60\jre\bin. From the VTK user's guide, it 
sounds like I want an installation with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS off for my 
distribution purpose. When I do that, I get tons of errors in VS 2013. 
Am compiling with 64 bit set in CMake. I'm not familiar with Maven, and 
wasn't sure what to do with the binary distribution files.
Thanks,
Jim
