[vtkusers] Building VTK 5.10 with VS 2015

[Gib Bogle]

Hi,

Unfortunately my student has Visual Studio 2015 Community - the earlier VS versions seem to be no longer available on Dreamspark.  I am trying to build VTK 5.10.1 with this version, but 8 library builds failed.  Here are a few of the error messages:

8>C:\VTK5.10.1\Utilities\vtkhdf5\src\H5Omtime.c(226): error C2065: 'timezone': undeclared identifier

Am I wasting my time with VS 2015?
