Download and Build {{{1}}}

Click here to download {{{1}}}. and its CMakeLists.txt file.

Once the tarball {{{1}}}.tar has been downloaded and extracted,

cd {{{1}}}/build

This example requires Qt and VTK.

• If VTK and Qt are installed:

cmake ..

• If VTK is not installed but compiled on your system, you will need to specify the path to your VTK build:

cmake -DVTK_DIR:PATH=/home/me/vtk_build ..

• If Qt is not found on your system, you will need to tell CMake where to find qmake:

cmake -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/something/qmake  ..

Build the project:

make

and run it:

./{{{1}}}

WINDOWS USERS PLEASE NOTE: Be sure to add the VTK bin directory to your path. This will resolve the VTK dll's at run time. You may also need to add a Qt related path.
