[Dcmlib] Problème pour compiler la librairie gdcm pour VTK

Sorry I get sometime angree at windoze devlopment.

If you take a quick look at VTK/Common/vtkWin3éHeader.h you'll
understand right away what happened here. Basically if you select a
static build of VTK (as you did). Then VTK_EXPORT is defined to ...
nothing.
therefore when you decided to built GDCM as shared lib, the VTK_EXPORT
was also set to ... nothing (without the declspec dllexport thingy).

So the *correct* solution AFAIK is not to mix library type. You should
either rebuild VTK as shared lib (you'll see in the end it is much
faster do develop this way). And then build GDCM as shared too.
If you are unfamiliar with Windowze developmenet and runtime PATH, you
should not use shared lib, and instead build *everything* as static.
