[vtkusers] UseShadowsOn makes VTK 7.0.0 crash

[vincentrivola]

Dear all,

First of all, I wanted to thank VTK developpers because they did an
incredible job with this new release. I just made the switch between 6.3.0
and 7.0.0 on one of my application and it became so much faster that it was
hard to believe it ! 

Then I wanted to test one of the new features /mod of 7.0.0 which is the
shadow handling. I use the JAVA wrapper for VTK and included the following
line in my code:
		panel3d.GetRenderer().SetUseShadows(1);
or             panel3d.GetRenderer().UseShadowsOn();

This line makes my code crash with the following error message:
#

Apparently the crash is comming from outside the java wrapper.  Should I do
something special when compiling VTK in order to be able to use this
feature?

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Vincent
