[vtkusers] Delayloading VTK

[Andras Lasso]

This functionality would be really useful. By having such a method, we could more confidently leave the old OpenGL backend and switch to OpenGL2.

It would be great to have it as a built-in option in VTK, and for at least Windows, Linux, and Mac.

I cannot offer much to help, just that if there is a solution available then I can test it on various Windows PCs.

I have done this successfully using C++ and Win32.  For other languages and OS, I don't know.  With Win32 you can provide dll loading hooks and redirect any path.

See this page on MSDN for an overview:

If you need more detailed information about implementing with VTK, let me know and I'll post more.
