VTK 5.10.1 VS2010 Configuration 配置

Download VTK 5.10.1

Download VS2010

Download CMake 3.2.0

I assume you've already installed VS2010 and CMake 3.2.0 correctly.

Compile the VTK:

Start CMake 3.2.0, fill the source and destination:

source: C:/VTK5.10.1/VTK5.10.1

destination: C:/VTK5.10.1/VS2010

Click Configure and use Visual Studio 10 2010 to complie.

When first configure is done, select Grouped and Advanced.

BUILD_EXAMPLES          [ON]

BUILD_TEST              [ON]

CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX    [C:/VTK5.10.1/VS2010_install]

CMAKE_USE_PTHREADS      [OFF]

CMAKE_USE_WIN32_THREADS [ON]  

click Configure again.

After configure is done (No errors show), click Generate.

Go back to your build folder, open VTK.sln, right click ALL_BUILD, choose Rebuild.

Wait a long time for make process, have a cup of coffee :)

After rebuild is done, right click INSTALL, choose Build.

Now, the configuration is done, enjoy it :)

Create a new empty project,
