VTK-8.2.0
VTK Data
──VTK
├─Data （将Data.tgz解压到Data中）
├─Files （存放编译结果）
├─Install
├─VTK-8.2.0 （存放源码，将VTK-8.2.0.zip解压到此处)
设置源码路径和编译路径如下
点击Configure，选择自己对应的VS版本，点击Finish
配置结束后，勾选BUILD_EXAMPLES，修改CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX路径为我们建立的文件目录中的Install文件夹，之后点击Configure
配置完成后点击Generate，完成后点击Open Project，会自动在VS中打开项目
进入VS后，右键ALL_BUILD,选择生成；完成后，找到INSTALL，同样右键，选择生成
右键Cube，选择设为启动项目
上方设置为Debug与x64后，点击本地Windows调试
运行结束，成功显示demo！
打开VS，创建一个空项目，命名为VTK_test
修改配置为Debug，平台为x64，之后在VC++ 目录下，编辑包含目录为Install文件夹下的include\vtk-8.2，库目录为Install文件夹下lib文件夹
随后，点击链接器→输入→附加依赖项→编辑，在弹出的窗口中填入Install/lib文件夹下所有.lib文件的名字，点击确定

配置完成后点击应用
在系统变量中，添加Install/bin到Path环境变量中
右键源文件， 选择添加， 新建项
选择C++文件，命名为test.cpp，点击添加
复制cube中Cube.cxx的代码至test.cpp中，用于测试。

上方设置为Debug与x64后，点击本地Windows调试器，运行程序
报错解决！
上述步骤完成后，点击运行却提示引发异常，同时弹出窗口显示Error: no override found for ‘vtkPolyDataMapper‘
解决方法如下：
查看Install/lib文件夹中与OpenGL有关的.lib文件名，我的如下所示
在代码中添加如下三行代码
#include <vtkautoinit.h>
VTK_MODULE_INIT(vtkRenderingOpenGL2);
VTK_MODULE_INIT(vtkInteractionStyle);
注意：如果.lib文件结尾为OpenGL，没有2，则第二行代码也需对应写作VTK_MODULE_INIT(vtkRenderingOpenGL);
最终程序成功运行！
补充
查询时，发现其他人在完成上面步骤后，运行会出现下方的错误
他们的解决方法为：在链接器→输入→附加依赖项中添加opengl32.lib库文件
