From the README.html in the top level directory of VTK:<br>
<br>
Link error with borland: TCL82.LIB
contains invalid OMF record, <br>
type 0x21 (possibly COFF). You have to
convert Tcl libraires <br>
from coff to omf with the Borland utilitiy
coff2omf. Once you <br>
have created OMF versions, re-run cmake to
tell it where the Borland<br>
versions of Tcl and Tk are located. Also,
make sure that you are using<br>
Tcl/Tk 8.3.2.<br>
<br>
<br>
The larger files may have to do with many things.<br>
<br>
Are you building shared or static, optimize for size or not.<br>
<br>
What were the errors with the Release type?<br>
<br>
<br>
We do not have a dashboard for Borland 6 which is why you are having some
troubles.<br>
We only test Borland 5. Once you get this working would you
be willing to run<br>
a nightly dashboard for Borland 6?<br>

<blockquote type=cite class=cite cite>Ok, I have tried a few things with
the Borland C++ Builder 6.0 Enterprise, <br>
which borrowed from a friend, and here is what I have found:<br>
<br>
(1) the -w- option is turned on at default when I run CMake<br>
(2) I changed the "CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE" to 'Release' and <br>
caused the compilation failure.<br>
(3) I changed "CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE" to its default value:
'Debug',<br>
and with "VTK_WRAP_TCL" ON, and the
compiler will terminate<br>
with a message about "OMF object not
recognized in TCL83.lib ..".<br>
(4) Turn off "VTK_WRAP_TCL" and everything was ok, compilation
compeleted.<br>
<br>
Then I played with the VTK examples, and found that the .exe files were
larger <br>
than the .exe files built with VC. So I suspected that had
something to do with the<br>
"CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE" option. Is that right? Or BCC always
has larger .exe than <br>
the .exe built with VC??<br>
