Mario's correct. The error message you receive about not being able to
find an ordinal in VTKCOMMON.DLL means that you are linked against the
shared lib/DLL build of VTK. You have to rebuild VTK with the CMake
setting BUILD_SHARED_LIBS set to OFF. Then you have to rebuild your
project with the same setting.<br>
<br>
You can use the dependency walker tool (depends.exe) to view what DLL's
and what exports your EXE depends on. You can download it from <a

<br>
Hope this helps,<br>

<pre wrap="">Hi,
Your demo program clearly tries to load the DLLs at the beginning of the
execution and something goes wrong. I would recompile the VTK again using
the "STATIC LIB" option which will create static Borland lib files and you
will not need any DLLs, since you will include the libs directly in your
project.
Bye,
Mario

Subject: Re: [vtkusers] vtk42 using with Borland 5 builder
Hi Mario,
As far as I know, I don't use any DLL's. But perhaps they are linked
unnoticed? The error I get is a pop-up window, even before the form
constructor is invoked. It says some like: cannot find ordinal 55?? in
VTKCOMMON.DLL. Perhaps this does ring a bell?
I have tried to put some breakpoints, but the program terminates even
before it enters some of my code. The sample project is just the
standard Borland think you get when starting a new project. In my case I
just made a form with a button, and when clicking that button that
example should execute. I tried Dean's suggestion, and placed that dll
in the .exe directory, but with no result. :(
Cheers,
Wienand
