Re: [wxVTK] [vtkusers] Anyone using wxVTK wxVTKRenderWindowInteractor wxWidgets VTK class?

[Sander N. <nie...@st...>]

At our company we are currently using the wxVTK package.

We use wxWidgets/VTK for the development of an ESA-funded open-source  
application called VISAN (part of the BEAT toolbox: http:// 
www.stcorp.nl/beat).
The current public available version of VISAN uses some hand-crafted  
wxVTK bridge with Python bindings, but internally we have now moved  
to wxPython 2.8, VTK 5 and wxVTK (since we moved more stuff to C++  
and wanted to include support for Gtk2 and Mac OS X Carbon). We are  
now able to create working binaries for Windows, Linux (Gtk2), and  
Mac OS X (Carbon). A new release of VISAN with these changes is due  
in September.

In order to get things to work we had to patch the wxVTK sources.  
Attached you will find the patch that we used.
The primary change that we made in order to get wxVTK to work with  
wxWidgets 2.8 was to move back to using wxGLCanvas again (i.e. remove  
the '#if (!wxCHECK_VERSION(2, 8, 0))').

The timer warning is something we haven't seen. But we are using our  
own interactor styles for most of our visualisations anyway, so that  
may be the reason.
