Failure to install under Win32 VC7.1

This issue was created automatically from an original Mantis Issue. Further discussion may take place here.

When using VC7.1 on the cvs version of VTK the INSTALL fails with:

-- Installing /usr/local/lib/vtk/CMake/vtkMakeInstantiator.cxx.in -- Installing /usr/local/lib/vtk/CMake/cmVTK_WRAP_TCL2.dll CMake Error: Error in cmake code at c:/vtk/VTKBin/cmake_install.cmake:72: FILE cannot find file: C:/vtk/VTKBin/CMake/cmVTK_WRAP_TCL2.dll to install.

There seem to be three problems here:

  1. This file does not exist for the release version of MFC. So it is not being built.
  2. The file does exist for the debug version but it is in C:/vtk/VTKBin/CMake/Debug
  3. I tried to install the debug version but it also failed with the same message - so it does not realise the file is in the Debug subdirectory.

I am using the CVS version of VTK. Note that, except for the install, VTK compiles and links OK for both the debug and release versions.

As a check, ParaView and CMake install OK.
