Is there a proper build process documented for the new cmake system?

https://gitlab.kitware.com/vtk/vtk/blob/master/Documentation/dev/build.md Though the Java-specific bits may need some tweaking.

Also in the old build process there was an effort to remove any version number in the lib name

I think the Java libraries are version-less by default.

along with trying to ensure consistent extension across platforms (.dll, .so => .jnilib)

Hmm. I only see jnilib in an if (APPLE) block. However, isn’t extension stuff an artifact of System.loadLibrary?
