Compiling VTK:
Even the latest stable version of VTK (5.0.4) makes some weird assumptions about namespaces. In order to make it compile with GCC 4.3, replace #include <string> with #include <string.h> and similarly for other C library headers.
Using Java VTK Wrappers:
- Add vtk.jar to your classpath. Notice the jar file can end up in a fresh /VTK-build/, even though you have specified other build output directory.
- Add the directory where libvtkRenderingJava.so resides to your path (export to PATH seems to work just as well as -Djava.library.path=~/VTK-build/bin/ at java's command line)
- Add libmawt.so to you LD_LIBRARY_PATH in your environment (export seems to work, although -DLD_LIBRARY_PATH at java's command line does not)
