I have a Visual C++ program, Visual Studio 2019, WinForms and am trying to add in VTK. I have two projects. One is the CLR project that does the WinForm UI called ORIScanUI, and a second project that does the unmanaged code (VTK, VC, PCL) is called ORIScan. I have VTK 9.0.1 source and it builds fine with CMake making the visual studio project and then Visual studio builds the VTK binaries. All the include paths in my project are correct and linking in the .lib and finding the .dlls works fine.
It crashes on startup before any windows show up on the screen.
Exception thrown at 0x00007FF9E8214350 (ntdll.dll) in ORIScanUI.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF.
And the stack is

It appears the problem is in vtkDebugLeaksManagerInstance
My minimal test code does not even do anything. Simply including the
#include “vtkClipClosedSurface.h”
all by its self causes the crash. I assume VTK is starting up static functions and that causes the crash.
If I make a super simple Visual C++ console app so there is no CLR and no managed code, it starts up fine.
Any ideas?
