I want to use VTK7 in appveyor. I don’t want to build VTK from source, because it takes long time. Are there binaries for Visual Studio 2015 or 2017?

We do not ship binaries for VTK on any platform anymore. I believe VTK 7 was probably built with 2013 however (though I suspect that an SDK is lacking from that release too). I suggest creating a Windows image where VTK is built in the `Dockerfile` (now that Docker supports Windows containers).
