Hello all,
With the help from Bill Hoffman, the problem has been solved. I'd like
to share the solution with you.
You may already find articles on the net, talking about free
command-line c++ complier from within microsoft's .Net Framework SDK and
win32 libs from within Platform SDK. I installed both and successfully
compiled all the examples from the "OpenGL RedBook", and mistakenly
thought I got the free comipler work.
Then, error occurred when I tried to build VTK --- CMake failed to
compile/link a simple c++ program during configuring VTK because
libcpmt.lib could not be found. In fact, all the c++ standard libs are
NOT shipped with either Framework SDK or Platform SDK.
The right way is using Microsoft Visual C++ 2005 Express Edition, which
is free of charge. You can download it from
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/visualc/. You need to
uninstall .NetFramework SDK if you already install it, and make sure you
set environmental variables correctly --- path, include, lib ...
Just to avoid any misunderstand Visual Studo C++ 2005 is the right way
of doing it, simply because Microsoft is recommending it. People should
still be able to build CMake/VTK/ITK or any other project using the
VC++Toolkit 2003 + Plateform SDK.
libcpmt.lib is in:
C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit 2003/lib
CMake 2.4.5 now uses the 'link' command, which solve the last remaining
problem with the free tool:

Ref: Here is what I use:
export PATH='/cygdrive/c/Program Files/CMake
2.4/bin/:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit
2003/bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows
Server 2003 R2/Bin:/cygdrive/c/Program Files/Microsoft Platform SDK for
Windows Server 2003 R2/Bin/win64':$PATH
export LIB="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit
2003\lib;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server 2003
R2\Lib"
export INCLUDE="C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual C++ Toolkit
2003\include;C:\Program Files\Microsoft Platform SDK for Windows Server
2003 R2\Include"
