Hi Dennis,

if you try to use VTK7, you can link against only a subset of vtkRendering*
libraries (the ones which your application actually uses),
e.g. vtkRenderingCore-7.0.lib and vtkRenderingOpenGL-7.0.lib.

As you did not specify what kind of application it is, we can only guess
how hard would it be to CMakify

 it. If you CMakify your application, linking against VTK can be
accomplished in a simple way provided in this example
<http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Tutorials/CMakeListsFile>.

HTH,
DÅ¾enan
