<p>I´m trying to build paraview from source, therefore using:</p>
<ul>
<li>Windows 7</li>
<li>Visual Studio 2010</li>
<li>Qt 4.8.7</li>
<li>Python 2.7.8</li>
<li>msmpi 7</li>
<li>paraview source, version 5.1.0</li>
</ul>
<p>In CMake I can choose different options to specify what functionality to include into the build process. I tried
different combinations, like setting BUILD_EXAMPLES or PARAVIEW_USE_MPI, respectively. Now I have got following
questions:</p>
<ol>
<li>
<p>When I set BUILD_SHARED_LIBS and PARAVIEW_ENABLE_PYTHON as well (besides others, but I know those two cause the
problem), configuring and generating the project with CMake is successful, but compiling in VS fails; it keeps freezing
right after starting the compilation. Did anybody experience the same problem and how did you solve it? (By the way, if
I switch off BUILD_SHARED_LIBS it works, but I don´t want a static build of paraview).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>By using the combination BUILD_EXAMPLES, BUILD_TESTING, PARAVIEW_BUILD_QT_GUI, PARAVIEW_ENABLE_CATALYST,
PARAVIEW_ENABLE_PYTHON and PARAVIEW_USE_MPI the same problem as described in 1.) occurs, but that is more or less what
I need to use catalyst to perform in-situ analysis of my FEM simulation. (Incidentally, if I switch off BUILD_TESTING
in the above combination it works, but I need CTest to test the catalyst examples as described <a target="_blank" rel=

"http://stackoverflow.com/questions/26416630/how-to-run-catalyst-paraview-code-examples">here</a>. Does anybody now how
to fix that problem?</p>
</li>
<li>
<p>As shown at <a target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener" href=
"https://github.com/Kitware/ParaViewCatalystExampleCode-MOVED-">GitHub</a>, some examples have been updated to work
properly in paraview 4.4. Is my version of paraview (5.1.0) unsuitable for the catalyst examples? Is that the reason
why VS is always hanging up for particular variable settings in CMake and which version of paraview is most suitable to
get the catalyst examples going?</p>
</li>
</ol>
<p>I'd appreciate any help!</p>
