Hi Utkarsh,

for the moment I have this:

I modified the ParaView Super Build  sources :
    add the line "include(pxdmfreader)" to the CMakeLists.txt
    and add a revision in the file versions.cmake
("add_customizable_revision(pxdmfreader...")

add 2 file the Project directory (in the way as the vistrails plugin)
    pxdmfreader.cmake
    install_pxdmfreader.cmake

the install_pxdmfreader.cmake is responsible of making the zip files.



Now I configure the super build and I enable the plugin. The plugin is
compiled and a zip/tar.gz is generated (tested in linux/osx)

is this the correct way to go???
is this enough to be compatible with the binary version of ParaView??

It is normal that every time I type 'make' in the superbuild build
directory a configuration process (cmake) on the
paraview/src/paraview-build/ is executed?? This is verry slow. I made
changes only in my plugin.

Now I'm working in detecting/building the dependencies correctly (blas,
xdmf2/3, boost, zlib).

Thanks

Felipe
