0003221: how to sucessfully get a 64bit compile for windows
Hello,

In case anyone is interested, here are the details of how I was able to compile VTK on a 64bit WINDOWS workstation running windows 64 bit edition:

Precompile:
· Downloaded the following from kitware (www.kitware.com):
    o CMake Beta version 2.4.1
        § Cmake-2.4.1-win32.exe
    o VTK source code
        § Vtk-5.0.0.zip
    o VTK data
        § Vtkdata-5.0.0.zip
· Installed CMake 2.4.1. This install only took a few minutes and was successful.
· Unzipped VTK source code to C:\VTK. This only took a few minutes and the unzip was successful.
· Unzipped VTK data to C:\VTK. This only took a few minutes and the unzip was successful.


CMake Generation:
· Started CMake and made the following settings:
o Source code: C:\VTK
o Binaries: C:\VTK\binaries

Clicked “Configure” and set build for to “Visual studio 8 2005 Win 64” and clicked OK. Values were updated.

· Clicked “Configure” again to set these values.
· Clicked “OK” to generate build files. This took a few minutes and was successful.
