PoissonReconstruction

I was able to solve the problem using following steps.

  1. Instead of downloading and placing PoissonReconstruction.remote.cmake or Powercrust.remote.cmake in src/remote folder, download the code directly from these github links. PoissonReconstruction and Powercrust.
  2. Extract and place the folders in src/remote directory. Rename the folders, remove “-master” from the end.
  3. Reconfigure using cmake GUI and you should see following messages in the console.
    Powercrust: Building as a Remote VTK module
    PoissonReconstruction: Building as a Remote VTK module
  4. Now you can build and install vtk. You will be able to see install dll and libs in the VTK directory.

The problem is that when we use PoissonReconstruction.remote.cmake or Powercrust.remote.cmake to clone the directory, it fails to download the file named “vtk.module” which seems to be an essential file for configuration for cmake. Manually downloading the code from github solves this problem. Cheers!
