[Paraview] Specify value for CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX when compiling Catalyst?

Hi Utkarsh,

I have one more question related to the Catalyst edition. I have compiled the ‘Essentials’ build. I used the command below(for reference) to configure the edition, and everything seems to work out.

./../Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials/cmake.sh -CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/neal/software/Catalyst/Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials_build -DPARAVIEW_INSTALL_DEVELOPMENT_FILES:BOOL=ON ../Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials

I’m trying to compile the Catalyst examples that are located in the original ParaView source tree using the Catalyst edition. I used the following command to configure the examples:

cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/neal/software/Catalyst/Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials_build -DBUILD_FORTRAN_EXAMPLES:BOOL=ON /home/neal/software/ParaView/Examples/Catalyst/

cmake does not complain when I configure with the command above. But when I type ‘make’ I see an error that a header file cannot be located. It’s a header file that I know for a fact is located in the ‘Essentials’ build directory under …/include/paraview-5.1. 

I tried using the -DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=[path to …/include/paraview-5.1] , but cmake tells me that the manually specified variable was not used.  The full line that I’m trying to use to configure the examples is:

cmake -DCMAKE_PREFIX_PATH=/home/neal/software/Catalyst/Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials_build -DBUILD_FORTRAN_EXAMPLES:BOOL=ON -DCMAKE_INCLUDE_PATH=/home/neal/software/Catalyst/Catalyst-v5.1.0-Base-Enable-Python-Essentials_build/include/paraview-5.1 /home/neal/software/ParaView/Examples/Catalyst/

Am I not specifying the include path correctly?

Thank you,
Chris Neal

    Chris,
    
    Some thing like this should do the trick:
    
    > [...]/cmake.sh -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/tmp/install [... path to Catalyst src ...]
