[ITK-users] [Paraview] compile itk (VTKGlue ON) with vtk from paraview

[Dr. Roman Grothausmann]

Hi Matt,


Thank You very much for Your reply.
I can only find one VTKTargets.cmake in /opt/compilation/paraview-git_build/VTK/
It seems though that it is lacking the relevant entries for the libraries that 
troubled me, e.g. vtkPVPythonCatalyst and vtkUtilitiesPythonInitializer.

I'm about to publish the ITK-VTK PV plugin in the Midas Journal, what 
installation instructions should I give there?
Will the testing environment be able to compile this plugin and its tests or 
should I disable automatic testing for this contribution?

Many thanks for looking into this.
Roman
