<div class=" moz-cite-prefix">Ok, thanks all, finally I generated VS
projects of VTK's examples through CMake and I found what I
searched :<br>
<br>
To have the os/rendering system dependent classes created, I
assume I must set following macro : <br>
<i>#define vtkRenderingCore_AUTOINIT
4(vtkInteractionStyle,vtkRenderingFreeType,vtkRenderingFreeTypeOpenGL,vtkRenderingOpenGL)</i><br>
<br>
or add in my preprocessor definitions a reference to a file,
containing the previous macro, like this :<br>
<i>vtkRenderingCore_INCLUDE="vtkRenderingCore_AUTOINIT_vtkInteractionStyle_vtkRenderingFreeType_vtkRenderingFreeTypeOpenGL_vtkRenderingOpenGL.h"<br>
<br>
</i>Cannot be these parameters set in VTK build, to be included in
VTK resulting dll ?<br>
<br>
Else I must add these definitions in all my VTK dependent projects
which is not very elegant ...<br>

<br>
Yes, I see those warnings you added... but it's not clear to me
how to act on them (I haven't had the time to look deeply).<br>
<br>
I like the idea of you documenting 'what those definitions
trigger', not only to make my life easier :) but because I
suspect it's fairly common that people use the resulting VTK
libraries in their favourite IDEs (VS, Xcode). It's totally
understandable/reasonable to require people to use CMake to
*build* VTK, but once built, it's just a bunch of library files
that should be usable in Xcode, VS, or automake projects... it
was possible in VTK 5, and this may catch people by surprise, as
I believe is what has happened here.<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
