I am trying to port a program that uses VTK in a Qt GUI from Windows to Linux. To keep this as straightforward as possible I’m sticking with the Qt and VTK versions that I’ve been using: Qt-4.8.6 and VTK-5.10. The VTK libraries are selected like this:
LIBS += -L/usr/local/lib/vtk-5.10 -lQVTK -lvtkRendering -lvtkGraphics -lvtkImaging -lvtkIO -lvtkFiltering -lvtkCommon
-lvtkpng -lvtktiff -lvtkjpeg -lvtkexpat -lvtksys -lvtkexoIIc -lvtkNetCDF -lvtklibxml2 -lvtkzlib -lvtkalglib
-lws2_32 -lwsock32 -lvfw32 -lopengl32 -lgdi32 -lkernel32 -luser32 -lgdi32 -lwinspool -lshell32 -lole32 -loleaut32 -luuid -lcomdlg32 -ladvapi32
where the removed libraries are Windows-specific. (Edit: the lines that have been bolded were actually commented out - the software here is doing something funny with the hash character.)
I’m not sure what I need to add to replace the missing functionality, but adding this line did eliminate some errors:
LIBS += -L /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu -lX11 -ldl -lGL
I am still getting many errors relating to functions in vtkXRenderWindowInteractor.cxx all prefixed by ‘Xt’, I don’t know what these are. I’d be grateful for any pointers. The OS is Ubuntu 16.04.
Thanks
Gib
