Compilation error wen using VTK in QT4.4

[richardander]

Hi,

I got the following compilation error when I compile my project in Visual Studio 2008. The same code is compiled successfully in VS2003.net.

\tmp\moc\moc_QVTKWidget.cpp(56) : error C2491: 'QVTKWidget::staticMetaObject' : definition of dllimport static data member not allowed

Could anyone let me know what the problem is?

Thank you!

The QVTKWidget.h / .cpp are all from VTK4.4.

Here is the complete list of warnings and errors.

Thank you!

The QVTKWidget.h / .cpp are all from VTK4.4.

Did you include the sources to your project? If so, you might want to remove the export macro from QVTKWidget. The export macro is there because it was supposed to be used as a library.

[richardander]

You hit the exact point! It works. But, how do you know the existence of "export macro from QVTKWidget" from the warning message?

Though the compilation passes, the linking didn't pass with error messages below associated with vtkRendering.lib and vtkCommon.lib. With the same setting, the compilation works in VS2003.net.
BTW, for the library used in my application, do I need to compile them in VS2008 again if the my application is compiled in VS2008?

Thank you!
