[Paraview-developers] Paraview Runtime Segfault when linking with external c++ library

[Prashant V]

Hi,



I have developed a paraview source plugin. This source plugin needs to call few functions which are outside of Paraview. These functions are in C++ and compiled with intel compiler. I am trying to add a library (having these functions) in Paraview to solve my purpose.

In CMakeLists.txt file of my source plugin, I add two statements:

1) INCLUDE_DIRECTORIES(<Path ofexternal funcitons>)
2) TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES(MyPlugin LINK_PUBLIC <full library path with name>)



After doing this, Paraview compiles successfully. But when I try to launch Paraview, it crashes with segmentation fault.

When I comment out the external function call in my source plugin code, then Paraview launches successfully.



Paraview is compiled with G++ compiler. Is it a linker problem because my external library is compiled through ICPC(intel c++) but Paraview is compiled with G++? I am working with Ubuntu 12.04. I have tried adding both static (.a) and shared (.so) libraries, but in vain.



Do I need to do anything additional in CMakeLists.txt file. Can anybody help here?



Thanks,
Prashant
