[Paraview] How to Build my own ParaView 3.12.0 Distribution

[Michael Jackson]

I get this error:

ns\ParaView\CPackParaViewConfig.cmake -C Release

CPack Error: Error when generating package: ParaView

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
  I added  -DPARAVIEW_INSTALL_THIRD_PARTY_LIBRARIES=ON
-DVTK_INSTALL_THIRD_PARTY_LIBRARIES=ON to my configure script. I build
with "msbuild /p:Configuration=Release ParaView.sln" from the command
prompt.

 I also have "-DBUILD_DOCUMENTATION=ON -DDOCUMENTATION_HTML_HELP=ON"
so will that generate all the help files and package those?

Is there a script that kitware uses that I can adjust to suit my
needs? All I really have are my own 3 custom plugins that need to be
bundled.
