[vtkusers] libvtk5-dev alternative for cygwin in windows

[Rahul Kumar Soni]

Hi vtk users

I am trying to install LIGGGHTS - an open source package with the vtk
support. When I installed LIGGGHTS in ubuntu, I had to install libvtk5-dev
with the command sudo apt-get install libvtk5-dev (see step 1 in
http://www.cfdem.com/forums/liggghts-installation-guide-ubuntu-1204-lts-and-1304
).

Now, I am trying to install LIGGGHTS in windows through cygwin terminal. I
have successfully installed cmake and compiled vtk-5.10.1. However, while
compiling LIGGGHTS, it throws following message:

ltering -lvtkIO  -lstdc++        -o ../lmp_ubuntuVTK
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/4.9.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -lvtkCommon
/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/4.9.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:

/usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-pc-cygwin/4.9.2/../../../../x86_64-pc-cygwin/bin/ld:
cannot find -lvtkIO
collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
Makefile:96: recipe for target '../lmp_ubuntuVTK' failed
make[1]: *** [../lmp_ubuntuVTK] Error 1

Makefile:77: recipe for target 'ubuntuVTK' failed
make: *** [ubuntuVTK] Error 2

I believe that like in ubuntu I installed libvtk5-dev in ubuntu, I haven't
found any alternative for cygwin in windows. Please help me to solve the
issue.
