I get these types of errors from the more recent versions of vtk (4.0 and higher).. on
SGI IRIX compilers..

******************************
cc-1367 CC: ERROR File = impDiscreteSet.cc, Line = 188
  A pointer to an incomplete class type is not allowed.

        origVolume->GetPointData()->SetScalars (dset_scalars);
        ^

cc-1367 CC: ERROR File = impDiscreteSet.cc, Line = 194
  A pointer to an incomplete class type is not allowed.

        origVolume->GetPointData()->GetScalars()->GetRange(r);
        ^
***********************

I know how to fix it - include vtkPointData.h. I am just curious why this
has started appearing or why this include file is needed, as its just a pointer
being dereferenced. If thats the case, then why dont I get a similar error
for not include vtkDataArray.h (returned by GetScalars())?

Thanks.
