[vtkusers] Building Cocoa example on OSX

[Andy Somogyi]

Hi All, 

This question has been asked before, but I’ve not seen any resolution. 

I’m trying the build a Cocoa example on OSX 10.9, and I get the Undefined symbols for architecture x86_64:

"_OBJC_CLASS_$_vtkCocoaGLView", referenced from:
      _OBJC_CLASS_$_BasicVTKView in BasicVTKView.o
"_OBJC_METACLASS_$_vtkCocoaGLView", referenced from:
      _OBJC_METACLASS_$_BasicVTKView in BasicVTKView.o

This is trying to build agains VTK 6.1 from brew with Cocoa enabled, the libvtkRenderingOpenGL clearly has the symbols:

nm libvtkRenderingOpenGL-6.1.dylib  | grep _vtkCocoaGLView
0000000000167258 s _OBJC_CLASS_$_vtkCocoaGLView
0000000000167158 s _OBJC_IVAR_$_vtkCocoaGLView._myVTKRenderWindow
0000000000167150 s _OBJC_IVAR_$_vtkCocoaGLView._rolloverTrackingRectSet
0000000000167160 s _OBJC_IVAR_$_vtkCocoaGLView._rolloverTrackingRectTag
0000000000167280 s _OBJC_METACLASS_$_vtkCocoaGLView

I’ve tried moving the libvtkRenderOpenGL lib to the beginning, middle and end of the linker options, and no luck, here is the exact linker command Xcode is giving:

Everything else links perfectly find, except for these two symbols. 

Anybody have any ideas?

thanks
