As of now I have everything I need except there are no dlls- not in debug<br>

Does the VS2008 Build generate the dlls ? ?<br>

BTW, when you are building under Visual Studio do not build the<br>
install target (like some guides tell you) that will only cause<br>
problems with debugging because when you install the .dll names are<br>
the same for debug and release so with the name collision you have to<br>
choose to install debug or release instead of being able to use either<br>
in a normal development process. For CMake based applications instead<br>
you tell them where your VTK_DIR is and that location is the root<br>
where you had your build created.<br>
