[wxVTK] Conflicting declarations when compiling wxVTK examples

[Catherine P. <cep...@gm...>]

Hello all,

I am a new user to wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.  I generated a
makefile using ccmake without issues, but cannot get the example codes
provided with wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor to compile correctly.

I am getting the error messages:
In file included from /usr/include/gtk-1.2/gdk/gdkprivate.h:33,
                 from /usr/include/gtk-1.2/gdk/gdkx.h:30,
                 from wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor.cpp:54:

/usr/include/gtk-1.2/gdk/gdktypes.h:57: error: conflicting declaration
'typedef struct _GdkWindow GdkWindow'
...and so on.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what I can to to resolve these errors?

Thanks,
