First, download the installation package

1.VTK Source + data

I previously on the official website has been compiled error, later on the GitHub version, success, do not know why the record. The version on GitHub includes both the source code (VTK) and the data (Vtkdata).

Links: Https://github.com/Kitware/VTK

2.CMake Tools

The installation package that is searched directly on the net, the file name is Cmake-3.8.2-win64-x64.msi

Second, the Configure project with CMake

1. Prepare the catalogue first.

D:\installed\VTK\VTK-master (release source code)

D:\installed\VTK\bin (Put cmake output, new)

D:\installed\VTK\VTK Install (last installed directory, new)

2. (Key Step) Open the CMake tool to set the above path, click Configue, select Vs2015 compiler, modify the parameters repeat Configue, until there is no red, and finally press generate. Close the CMake tool

• QT option is not hooked later when combining QT
• Install_prefix that path is also set to D:\installed\VTK\VTK install
• See the reference link for specific settings

After that, go to the Bin directory and open the SLn file with vs2015, then click Generate. Then go to build the install project, and then D:\installed\VTK\VTK install inside the final generated VTK.
