Hello,<br> I downloaded VTK and CMake, then ran CMake and both "configure" and "generate" worked (both said "done" in the lower window of CMake).<br> However, when I ran VS2005 Express with C++ and tried to get the project vtk_minimal to work the project compiles but doesn't link, stopping on the notice that vtkCommon.lib wasn't found.<br>
When I used Windows search it couldn't find it and, actually, I don't see any other such libs. What do I need to do?<br> Barney<br></td></tr></tbody></table><br>
