<br>
First, learn this:<br>
<br>
In general, 'help me please' won't get you very far.<br>
<br>
A solid test case where you *tried* to get Java to work<br>
with VTK, but things did not work out as you planned, might<br>
demonstrate some diligence on your part. Then you post the<br>
test, the problem, and what you thought was supposed to happen.<br>
Then experts come to the rescue after perusing what you have<br>
done.<br>
<br>
Maybe a bit of google would be in order??<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=java+vtk&btnG=Google+Search">http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=java+vtk&btnG=Google+Search</a><br>
<br>
Which results in things like this:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://ij-plugins.sourceforge.net/vtk-examples/index.html">http://ij-plugins.sourceforge.net/vtk-examples/index.html</a><br>
<br>
This very much looks like a place to start......<br>
<br>
Maybe a search of the vtk web site at:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.vtk.org">http://www.vtk.org</a><br>
<br>
under the term Java might help.<br>
<br>
So, there you go. Hope that 'helps' you.<br>

If you've got the pure object you don't need GetOutput.<br>
You only need GetOutput if the pdata comes from a function you've uses <br>
before<br>
i.e.<br>
vtkPolyDataReader* reader = vtkPolyDataReader::New();<br>
reader->SetSomeKindOfPath("myString");<br>
vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter* smooth = vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter::New();<br>
smooth->SetInput(reader->GetOutput());<br>
<br>
Otherwise it goes like this:<br>
vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter* smooth = vtkSmoothPolyDataFilter::New();<br>
smooth->SetInput(myPolyDataObject);<br>
<br>

Salut Jerome,<br>
<br>
I think what you are looking for is either:<br>
<br>
- hitting the magic 'w' key in a vtkRWI<br>
- or setting the vtkProperty to SetRepresentationToWireframe<br>

Hi Luca and Fritz,<br>
<br>
Thanks for pointing out the input to smooth->SetInput(). I just tried to<br>
input the polydata object directly to the smoother, but I got an error from<br>
the vtkOutputWindow:<br>
<br>
C:\VTK\VTK\Common\vtkObject.cxx, line 131<br>
vtkObject: Destructing!<br>
<br>
Then the program stopped running. Could anybody spot what is going wrong?<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
Ming<br>

<br>
It seems that in VTK CVS the header files<br>
"vtkMesaPainterDeviceAdapter.h" and "vtkMesaRenderWindow.h" (at least,<br>
maybe there are others, but they do not cause compilation problems)<br>
are out of sync with the corresponding<br>
"vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.cxx" and "vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.cxx"<br>
implementations; those classes share the implementation .cxx files,<br>
but not the headers.<br>
<br>
I am not sure whether there is a related bug report yet. My<br>
workaround is to take "vtkOpenGLPainterDeviceAdapter.h" and<br>
"vtkOpenGLRenderWindow.h" as templates for the Mesa versions,<br>
essentially replacing "OpenGL" with "Mesa" in both the filenames and<br>
the file contents. However, I have no idea why there are separate<br>
header files for Mesa, whereas the implementation part is handled by<br>
just having wrapper .cxx files that #define name mangling macros and<br>
stuff, and then include the OpenGL version; there might be other<br>
side-effects which I am not aware of.<br>

Hi,<br>
For some time the trackball interaction style produces some residual movements <br>
after an active mouse movement if I do not release the mouse button. It was <br>
not there some longer while ago I recall. Can it be disabled?<br>
Thanks for any hints,<br>

Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I have written an application in visual c++ which uses VTK. After compiling<br>
it produces an .exe which runs fine. But, when I copy-paste the .exe file of<br>
this application to another computer which doesn't have VTK compiled and<br>
installed, it doesn't work. It is what I had expected, so I copied all .lib<br>
files (such as vtkHybrid.lib, vtkVolumeRendering.lib, etc) to that computer,<br>
and it still doesnt work.<br>
<br>
How can I make my application on the other computer work?<br>
<br>
Any help will be appreciated,<br>
<br>
Thanks<br>
Rashed karim.<br>

This is probably related to the timer changes introduced earlier this year.<br>
Can you submit a bug at the VTK bug tracker with steps to reproduce this<br>
issue?<br>
<br>
You may be able to override this behavior if you dig into the various<br>
listeners of TimerEvent.<br>

there is (in general) more to a "clean" deployment of a project than<br>
just manually copying some files. For example, when you are linking<br>
your project against the shared runtime libraries from Visual Studio,<br>
those libraries need to be distributed with your project as well, in<br>
addition to the VTK libraries (if you are building shared VTK<br>
libraries), because other systems might just not have those exact<br>
libraries installed.<br>
<br>
Unfortunately, I do not know all too much about deploying programs<br>
created with Visual Studio--this might be a starting point for more<br>
general information:<br>

If you are using shared libraries, what needs to be distributes along<br>
with the ".exe" are the "*.dll" files, not "*.lib". You can try to<br>
copy the DLLs, but like mentioned above, there is no guarantee that<br>
this will be enough.<br>

Hi Obada,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help. The windows installer option definitely seems like a<br>
possible solution and thanks for providing me with the links. It came of<br>
great help.<br>
<br>
I had a question, for a quick dirty solution, if I did try copying the vtk<br>
DLLs, where can I find them. I have looked everywhere in my vtk installation<br>
folder but cant find them.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>

That's strange... did you compile with "BUILD_SHARED_LIBS" set to "ON"<br>
in CMake? If not, there will only be .lib files, and nothing needs to<br>
be copied to the other machine. If you did indeed compile for shared<br>
libraries, they should be in "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/bin", while the<br>
..lib files go in "CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX/lib".<br>
<br>
If this does not help: How does the problem become manifest in the<br>
target environment? Is there an error message? If there is, what<br>
does it say?<br>
<br>

Hi,<br>

just press the "w"-Button on the keyboard. If you have a "normal" vtk-Window you should see the object as wireframe. Then press "s" to switch back to solid view.<br>

Dear VTK users,<br>
<br>
does anybody know how I can easily see the wireframe of a dataset<br>

between each vertices of an hexahedron, not the faces of it ?<br>
Thanks a lot.<br>

Hi vtk users,<br>
I have a CT volume that I would like to visualize in parallel.I am supposed to use MPI using n+1 nodes (n nodes for parallel computing, one node as front end), so that my strategy is as follows :<br>
1) on the front end node partition the volume in n subvolumes, roughly the same size;<br>
2) send using MPI the subvolumes to the n computing nodes (one subvolume per node);<br>
3) let the n computing nodes do in parallel the visualization pipeline (each one on its assigned subvolumes);<br>
4) each one of the n computing nodes sends using MPI its final rendering result to the front end node;<br>
5) the front end node gathers the results from the n computing nodes, places them in its rendering window and shows the image.<br>
So the questions are:<br>
1) How can I read subvolumes from the volume file?<br>
2) It is possible to composite them once rendered handling the right transparency (I'm doing volume rendering..)?<br>
3) How can I use vtkMPIController to do that? I saw the example but no one does volume rendering<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance<br>

Hi Luca,<br>
<br>
thanks for the reply. I've tried the method and it works fine.<br>
<br>
But the problem is, that there is not just one intersection between a line and a vtkPolyData object. For example if we have a poly-sphere and a line, there could be two intersection points between the sphere and the line. And this method gives me only one point. It saves its coordinates in the "pline" argument (see below).<br>
But how should I get all the intersection points?<br>
<br>
Thanks!<br>

Using the 'cell' instance you can get interesting informations about the triangle involved in the intersection, but I haven used this feature. <br>
<br>
Also, don forget to do sometthing like this before invoking the IntersectWithLine method:<br>
<br>
vtkCellLocator *locator = vtkCellLocator::New();<br>
locator->SetDataSet(vtkPolyData* data);<br>
locator->BuildLocator();<br>

Hope this help<br>

I would think so, at least on VTK's part. Also, if there were<br>
problems with missing DLLs that were linked to the program by Visual<br>
Studio, the program would not even run, and, at best, cause the<br>
operating system to play a funny sound and display an error message<br>
complaining about missing components. If you want to be sure, you can<br>
check e.g. with the "Dependency Walker" on the target machine:<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.dependencywalker.com/">http://www.dependencywalker.com/</a><br>
<br>
It is a small tool that examines library dependencies and shows how<br>
they are resolved or if some are missing, much like "ldd" on GNU/Linux<br>
systems.<br>

<br>
If there are shared libraries involved, even small deviations can make<br>
a huge difference. Mixing library versions is generally not<br>
supported, see below ("Checking DLL deps").<br>

<br>
I am afraid that I do not have a viable explanation for what causes<br>
those problems at the moment. It still strikes me as odd that in your<br>
VTK installation the .lib files reside in the "bin" directory instead<br>
of "lib" (but I might just have remembered that wrong) and there are<br>
no DLLs at all, while it makes a difference on which systems the<br>
program is being run. In particular, if the program has been linked<br>
purely static, the resulting executable is self-contained, and it<br>
should not make a difference whether VTK is already installed or not.<br>
<br>
Anyway, I am not a Windows expert, but here are some other hints,<br>
questions and suggestions:<br>
<br>
First of all, to learn more about your configurations and maybe<br>
eliminate some possibilities, some more information about your build<br>
and installation procedures would be of help, if at all available,<br>
like:<br>
- the "CMakeCache.txt" used for building VTK<br>
- information on how your program is build (manually created project<br>
in VS, or CMake-generated VS project; the former is an error-prone<br>
procedure)<br>
- the full command line parameters the linker is invoked with<br>
<br>
Checking DLL deps: What I would probably try in your situation now,<br>
before approaching the problem from the root and testing whether<br>
pre-compiled, statically linked VTK programs run on the target machine<br>
at all, is to use the aforementioned "Dependency Walker" to check for<br>
any dynamic library dependencies. I don't know whether there is<br>
versioning information in DLLs which is checked while loading them;<br>
but in case the build system and target system have different library<br>
versions, weird things might happen, even if there are no reported<br>
linker problems; e.g., public symbol names did not change, but other<br>
API-related stuff has. I know this can cause problems on GNU/Linux,<br>
e.g. when stale .so files are found by the dynamic linker before the<br>
recent ones.<br>
<br>
Checking header files: Something similar is true for included .h<br>
files: Make sure that the VTK header files used for compiling your<br>
program match _exactly_ the libraries from the VTK build you are<br>
linking against. If in doubt, check the compiler/linker command line<br>
options for correct library and header search paths. Even small<br>
differences in header files can cause significant and undefined<br>
trouble if they do not match the library that is being used for<br>
linking. However, this is most probably not a problem if the program<br>
runs fine on the development system.<br>
<br>
Testing with small example: Do you happen to have compiled VTK<br>
examples, like the "Cone" example or similar? It would be nice to<br>
know whether they cause the same problems as your progam does.<br>
<br>
I don't have the time right now, but unless you manage to solve the<br>
problem and/or someone else has a better idea, and if I find some<br>
spare time, I could try to reproduce your deployment procedure on<br>
WinXP systems with Visual Studio 8 and see if it works--given that you<br>
can provide a small example program (maybe one of the VTK examples<br>
does the trick?) that causes similar problems on your configuration,<br>
along with some information how you built it.<br>
<br>
<br>
> Pardon me for being slightly vague. I really appreciate.<br>
<br>
No problem, and thank you for bearing with me and my wishy-washy suggestions<br>
:-)<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>

I was trying to build VTK wrappers for Python 2.5 on Windows, and got a problem: steps that worked for Python 2.4 don't work anymore: Python just doesn't find VTK packages.<br>
<br>
The reason is that since 2.5-th version Python doesn't consider *.dll files as packages, only looking for *.pyd. I finally had found that by myself, but thought it can be worthy of reporting. Simple renaming of vtk*Python.dll (not vtk*PythonD.dll) files into *.pyd shall fix the problem.<br>

Hi everyone,<br>
<br>
I have built a windows application which uses the vtk libraries. I want to<br>
transfer the application (.exe file) to another computer which doesnt have<br>
vtk installed. I transfered the .exe file together with vtk lib files (<br>
vtkHybrid.lib, vtkVolumeRendering.lib, etc) but it doesnt work.<br>
<br>
I dont want to compile vtk on the other machine, since its a long process.<br>
Does anyone know how I could make this application run on the other<br>
computer?<br>
<br>
Any help will be appreciated,<br>
<br>

Hi Obada,<br>
<br>
Thanks for your help. The windows installer option definitely seems like a<br>
possible solution and thanks for providing me with the links. It came of<br>
great help.<br>
<br>
I had a question, for a quick dirty solution, if I did try copying the vtk<br>
DLLs, where can I find them. I have looked everywhere in my vtk installation<br>
folder but cant find them.<br>
<br>
Thanks again,<br>
Rashed<br>

Hi, using a linux os I have done this using "g++ -static", then the binary <br>
will run on a machine that doesn't have vtk installed. Your compiler/linker <br>
should have a similar option, what version of c++ are you using?<br>

this question has been asked several times on the list, but there does<br>
not seem to be any direct solution (someone please correct me if that<br>
is not true). The IntersectWithLine() interface exposed by<br>
vtkCellLocator only returns the "best match", if any.<br>
<br>
There is, however, an additional method in vtkOBBTree<br>
<br>
<a href="http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkOBBTree.html">http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkOBBTree.html</a><br>
<br>
that is capable of returning multiple intersection points for certain<br>
inputs, its signature is<br>
<br>
int vtkOBBTree::IntersectWithLine(<br>
const double a0[3], const double a1[3],<br>
vtkPoints *points, vtkIdList *cellIds)<br>
<br>
According to the description, "this method assumes that the data set<br>
is a vtkPolyData that describes a closed surface"; I have no idea what<br>
would happen for input data sets that do not meet these criteria. It<br>
seems that this method was introduced for convenience by David Gobbi<br>
some years ago:<br>
<br>

<br>
Of course, you could also take a look at<br>
"Filtering/vtkCellLocator.cxx" and write a modified version of<br>
IntersectWithLine() with similar capabilities, i.e. remembering and<br>
returning all intersection points instead of the best match only<br>
:-)<br>

hi all,<br>
i am planning to write filters which will have multiple inputs and <br>
outputs and the number of inputs and outputs will be calculated during <br>
filter execultion (in the function RequestData). Can this be done?<br>
<br>
thanks<br>
