[Paraview-developers] Compiling under cygwin

[Scott, W Alan]

Yes.
No.
I think it can be done here: http://paraview.markmail.org/

What I did was run the normal cmd window that Visual provides.  This tells you what your PATH and other environment vars should be.  I then make a .sh file, which sets these variables up.  One heads up - be sure to pick up your MS libraries before Cygwin - otherwise you try to link with the cygwin linker rather than the visual linker.  In my example, notice that PATH=...bla...:$PATH.  $PATH must be at the end.

Here is what is in my .sh file.  I have no idea if most of it could be deleted, but it does work.

Also, don't forget to run cmake before running this script.
