[vtkusers] How to disable linking with GL2PS VTK module?

[Boris Basic]

Thanks!


Actually I found a hack by adding "#undef vtkRenderingOpenGL2_AUTOINIT" in one header of my project. Though it's not very elegant, it did the job.


Best,

Boris

vtkRenderingGL2PSOpenGL2 is an implementation detail that bridges the rendering library and gl2ps without creating a direct dependency on gl2ps. By design, linking to it should not pull in the actual gl2ps library as a dependency.

I'm not aware of any way to disable this module, AFAIK it seems to be autoenabled it implements a pure abstract interface in vtkRenderingOpenGL2. Someone with more knowledge of the details for the IMPLEMENTS keyword in the module system may know of a trick that I'm not aware of, though.

HTH,
Allie

Hi,


When generating a Visual Studio project using CMake, project which depends on vtkRenderingOpenGL2, the following preprocessor definition is added to the vcxproj: "vtkRenderingOpenGL2_AUTOINIT=1(vtkRenderingGL2PSOpenGL2)". This requires the project to link with vtkRenderingGL2PSOpenGL2. But as my project does not require GL2PS, I would like to get rid of this forced dependency, but could not find how to remove or change the autoinit definition. Is it possible to do that?


Cheers,

Boris
