CMake/Modules/FindVTK.cmake

#
# Find the native VTK includes and library
#
# This module defines:
#
# VTK_INSTALL_PATH  - Where is the installed version of VTK.
# USE_BUILT_VTK     - Should a built-from-source version of VTK be used.
#
# VTK_BINARY_PATH   - Where is (one of) the binary tree(s).
# USE_INSTALLED_VTK - Should an installed version of VTK be used
#
# USE_VTK_FILE      - (internal)
#                     Full path and location to the UseVTK.cmake file.
#                     This value changes each time USE_BUILT_VTK or 
#                     USE_INSTALLED_VTK is modified, and only if ONE of
#                     these setting is set to ON.
#
# If VTK is not found, an error is displayed unless VTK_FIND_QUIETLY
# is on.
#

#
# Look for a binary tree (built from source)
