[Paraview-developers] Building ParaView plugin on OS X using ParaView-Development tarball

[martyn.gigg at stfc.ac.uk]

Hi,

I'm trying to build some ParaView plugins for our project on OS X. 

I have successfully built ParaView and if I point our CMake code directly at the build's bin directory containing the ParaView libs & cmake files then the plugins build correctly and run as expected.

However, if I generate a development package tarball, in my case ParaView-Development-3.10.1-Darwin-x86_64.tar.gz, and extract this out to some directory and point my project at the lib directory of the result then I get linker errors when I try to build my code. Using make VERBOSE=1 it seems that not all of the ParaView dependencies have been included at the linker step. 

The linker line when using the tarball version looks like:
-L/Users/mantidlog/mantid-builds/paraview-3.10.1-patched/tarball/ParaView-Development-3.10.1-Darwin-x86_64/lib/paraview-3.10 -lpqComponents -lvtkPVServerManager

whereas when it is linked using the built copy I get many more libraries included
 -L/Users/mantidlog/mantid-builds/paraview-3.10.1-patched/build/bin /Users/mantidlog/mantid-builds/paraview-3.10.1-patched/build/bin/libpqComponents.dylib

Would someone be able to shed some light on this?

Many Thanks,
