[Paraview] compilation error

[Michael Jackson]

I use the technique of compiling my sources into paraview as I build  
ParaView so I do something like:


   MESSAGE (STATUS "Compiling PVDislocation into Paraview 3.x")
   #-- Invoke this Macro to add the sources to paraview and
   #-- wrap them for the client server
   PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_WRAPPED_SOURCES ("${PVDislocation_WRAPPED_SRCS}")

   #-- Invoke this macro to include non-wrapped sources in the build
   PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_SOURCES("${PVDislocation_SRCS}")
   # -- Add the Server Manager XML
   # Place the package configuration file into the build tree.
   CONFIGURE_FILE(${PVDislocation_SOURCE_DIR}/PV3-xml/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}_Filters_GUI.xml
                  ${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/${MODULE_NAME}_Filters.xml  
@ONLY IMMEDIATE)

   CONFIGURE_FILE(${PVDislocation_SOURCE_DIR}/PV3-xml/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}_GUI.xml
                  ${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/${MODULE_NAME}.xml @ONLY  
IMMEDIATE)

   # Place the package configuration file into the build tree.
   CONFIGURE_FILE(${PVDislocation_SOURCE_DIR}/PV3-xml/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}_PVSM.xml
                  ${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/${MODULE_NAME}.pvsm @ONLY  
IMMEDIATE)

   # -- Add the Server Manager XML
   PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_SERVERMANAGER_RESOURCES(${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}.pvsm)
   # -- Add the Client side xml
   PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_GUI_RESOURCES("${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}.xml")
   PARAVIEW_INCLUDE_GUI_RESOURCES("${LIBRARY_OUTPUT_PATH}/$ 
{MODULE_NAME}_Filters.xml")

So you need something similar in your CMakeLists.txt file
