<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=437380122-13112006>I'm trying to link
the vtk library to a Windows Forms Application (with Common Language Runtime
Support) directly (Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edition). I was
able to build the application without error but was not able to start the
application. It seems that the problem is due to the declaration of a
static variable:</SPAN></FONT></DIV>

<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN class=437380122-13112006><FONT size=2>This is
not a vtk specified problem since it can be reproduced in the simplest
application, as long as a static library in which a static global variable is
declared. </FONT></SPAN></FONT><FONT face=Arial size=2><SPAN

problem and know the cause of it and have a good
solution.</DIV></FONT></SPAN></FONT>
