GraphAlgorithmSource

Repository source: GraphAlgorithmSource

Description

This example produces a vtkGraph as output.

You will need the following in your CMakeLists.txt file:

find_package(VTK
 COMPONENTS
    CommonCore
    CommonDataModel
    CommonExecutionModel
    FiltersSources
    InfovisCore
)

Download and Build GraphAlgorithmSource

Click here to download GraphAlgorithmSource and its CMakeLists.txt file. Once the tarball GraphAlgorithmSource.tar has been downloaded and extracted,

cd GraphAlgorithmSource/build

If VTK is installed:

cmake ..

If VTK is not installed but compiled on your system, you will need to specify the path to your VTK build:

cmake -DVTK_DIR:PATH=/home/me/vtk_build ..

Build the project:

make

and run it:

./GraphAlgorithmSource

WINDOWS USERS

Be sure to add the VTK bin directory to your path. This will resolve the VTK dll's at run time.
