<DIV>Thanks for the response. I will use v4.4.2 for my project, if I can get the VolumePro classes to compile.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I still have an issue when adding the volumepro support, even in 4.4.2. I get a large number of ambiguous symbol errors (see earlier post below), apparantly related to the namespace vli3 that is defined in vtkVolumeProMapper.h. This is particularly frustrating because during my initial learning curve of using cmake and compiling vtk numerous times I'm pretty sure I had a good compile without these errors. I get them now, though, on two different computers using the .Net 2003 compiler and with the VC++6 compiler, so maybe I was dreaming the good compiles. I am (obviously) not a C++ guru and have little experience with namespaces, so looking at the class header files and implementations has not revealed any obvious issues to me. Perhaps there is a compiler setting or something similar I am missing?</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>Any thoughts, workarounds (even painful ones if doable) would be greatly appreciated!</DIV>
