shared libraries and java wrappers do not appear correct for windows using mingw batch implementation.
This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.
Attempting to build the VTK 5.6.0 JAVA wrappers using CMAKE 2.8 and MINGW and GCC 3.4.5 on Windows XP SP3. The CMAKE Configure and Generate complete successfully, but all libraries are named similar to this VTKCommon component example: "libVTKCommonJava.DLL" and "libVTKCommon.DLL.a". My long ago past experience was expecting names starting with VTK and no suffixes after the dll name. The result libVTKCommonJava.DLL library fails during the load request in java with unable to load dependent libraries. I can get past that error by renaming libVTKCommon.DLL.a to VTKCommon.DLL. but then when I try to create a vtk object is fails to find the VTKINIT function during the new VTKRenderWindow() java statement.
