[Bug 1586275] Re: the flag YADE_VTK6 starts to generate a problem as the latext VTK is right now 7

 

Hi Luc,

Yade is really not a VTK7-friendly now. Most of
us are using Debian-based distributions, where VTK7
does not exist yet. I have doubths, whether it will
be uploaded in a near future (see discussion here [1]).
Self-compiled versions of VTK can cause more problems
as their packaged variants.

You can try to compile Yade without VTK support (-DENABLE_VTK=0)
to be sure, whether it is the only dependency problem on
OpenSuse.

Best regards

Title:
  the flag YADE_VTK6 starts to generate a problem as the latext VTK is
  right now 7

Status in Yade:
  New

Bug description:
  I am trying a new full installation on my linux Opensuse tumbleweed configuration
  and I have downloaeded the latest VTK package from the vtk web site (7.0)
  (previous try on opensuse was working fine).

  for exemple in the subroutine /pkg/dem/VTKRecorder.cpp the flag YADE_VTK6 is defined to accept the change from older VTK to the 'new' version 6 by changing SetInput to SetInputData.
  but the latest version available of VTK is the version 7 so either the cmake is not doing the good job or the flag selection has to be updated

  so right now the compilation stop after 63%
