<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thank you for your help but it did not work, it
looks like the header force to do a dynamic link?!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>if you look in vtkwin32header.h:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>it include vtkconfigure.h which has:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#define BUILD_SHARED_LIBS<BR>#ifdef
BUILD_SHARED_LIBS<BR>#define VTKDLL<BR>#else<BR>#define
VTKSTATIC<BR>#endif<BR></FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>then back to vtkwin32header.h:</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#if defined(WIN32) &&
!defined(VTKSTATIC)<BR> #define VTK_EXPORT __declspec( dllexport
)</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>........</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>#else</FONT></DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2> #define
VTK_COMMON_EXPORT<BR>......</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>so, I don't know which these are doing there? even
if I comment out the BUILD_SHARED_LIBS and leave VTK_STATIC, it still search for
dll (I did rename vtkcommon.dll to vtkcommon2.dll to test that).</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2></FONT> </DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Anyways, that's not my main problem, but if it
could be solve, I would appreciate any help!</FONT></DIV>
<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>thank you.</FONT></DIV>
