Summary0002885: Generated "Instantiator" files issue
DescriptionComparing the generated vtkCommonInstantiator.cxx files from the release and CVS HEAD versions, the following instances are added to the method vtkCommonInstantiator::ClassInitialize:

vtkBitArrayIterator
vtkDebugLeaksManager
vtkErrorCode
vtkGarbageCollectorManager
vtkIOStream
vtkLargeInteger
vtkOStrStreamWrapper
vtkOStreamWrapper
vtkSmartPointerBase
vtkStdString

leading to a link error (the vtkInstantiatorXXXXNew are not found). This happens also for other libs.

I guess it is related (not 100% sure), but I get these errors when compiling VTK-5.0.0 on Windows with MSVC .net 2003:

vtkCommon - 10 error(s), 0 warning(s)

I used the standard options in CMake, but I also tried to compile dynamic libraries and some other parameters, all with the same results.

I tried the same VTK 5.0.0 with the same CMake (2.2.3) and MSVC (.net) on a different computer and it works there. The PC where it works does not have lines like:
extern vtkObject* vtkInstantiatorvtkStdStringNew();
where the PC where it does not compile does have these.

Copying the vtkCommonInstantiator.cxx from the working PC to the non-working PC does not fix the problem, but gives these errors when recompiling vtkCommon:

Correction: I did not use the "working" vtkCommonInstantiator.cxx on the PC where it does not work. When I compile the not-working vtkCommonInstantiator.cxx is re-created.

Oke I got it to compile. The problem seems to be the name of the directory that contains the VTK source (!!!). VTK-5.0.0 did not work, and vtk5 did work. So I guess something goes wrong if you have a dot (or dash?) in your filename.

I confirm the last post. I changed my VTK repository from
"D:\External Libs\VTK 5.0.0 CVS"
to
"D:\External Libs\VTK_5_0_0_CVS"

and it seems that the generated vtkCommonInstantiator.cxx doesnt containt the erroneous classes anymore.

But I just cannot figure out where I should look to track the bug down. Notice that the directory
"D:\External Libs\vtk-5.0.0"
works fine also.
