<div dir="ltr"><div><div><div><div><div>Hi Rich,<br><br></div>I'd suggest that initially just build ParaView from the full source code. The Catalyst editions are meant to be slimmed down versions of ParaView to reduce the memory load for specific configurations. See <a href="http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/606">http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/606</a> for information on the Catalyst editions. <br><br></div>Dave may have more information on building Catalyst as a library for the BG/Q but if the simulation code already uses CMake then see the CMakeLists.txt at <a href="https://github.com/Kitware/ParaViewCatalystExampleCode/blob/master/CxxFullExample/CMakeLists.txt">https://github.com/Kitware/ParaViewCatalystExampleCode/blob/master/CxxFullExample/CMakeLists.txt</a>. If the simulation code doesn't use CMake then the easiest thing is to create the adaptor as a library and build that with CMake and then just link the code to that library. An example of that is at <a href="https://github.com/acbauer/miniFE-2.0_ref_Catalyst">https://github.com/acbauer/miniFE-2.0_ref_Catalyst</a> where the adapter is built with CMake and links to Catalyst and the Makefile in src just points to the adapter library.<br><br></div>Have you gone through the Catalyst User's Guide yet? It's available at <a href="http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/images/4/48/CatalystUsersGuide.pdf">http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/images/4/48/CatalystUsersGuide.pdf</a>. I hope to have an updated version available in a week or two.<br><br></div>Regards,<br></div>Andy<br></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Mon, Feb 9, 2015 at 2:14 PM, Cook, Rich <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:cook47@llnl.gov" target="_blank">cook47@llnl.gov</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">

Thanks, Tim, I’ll follow your approach of using the mailing list and asking specific questions.

Hi Rich,<br>
<br>
There may be a few who are willing to help out if you can provide some specific questions or issues you run into.
<br>
<br>
Have you looked through the documentation at <span>
<a href="http://www.paraview.org/in-situ/" target="_blank">http://www.paraview.org/in-situ/</a></span> ? I got Catalyst up and running in our code (not on a BG/Q but on different clusters) with the information in the documentation and by asking some specific
questions here on the list. For me, the hardest part was converting our data into VTK data -- I did not have any exposure to VTK prior to taking the Catalyst leap. But it turned out to be (relatively) straight forward for what we are doing.<br>
<br>
I will be happy to answer things I can and for things I can't, hopefully somebody else will jump in.<br>
<br>
Tim<br>

<b>Subject: </b>[Paraview] User trying to build with catalyst -- need guidance<br>
<br>
Hello,
<div>We have not used catalyst here and I have a user that is interested in trying it out on our BG/Q machine with a huge code on hundreds of thousands of nodes. ;-)</div>
<div>Is there a brave soul willing to hold our hands through this process? </div>
<div>Thanks. </div>
