[Paraview] Problem building from source

Sun Nov 4 12:55:01 EST 2012

For what it's worth, I can load the filters I needed by doing: 

import vtkFiltersExtractionPython 

which appears to be missing from lib/paraview-3.14/site-packages/paraview/vtk/__init__.py for some reason... I'm not ruling out that I screwed up the build somehow since the Module_vtkFiltersExtraction was OFF and INTERNAL until I changed it.

Still more problems building... 

I have python wrapping turned on, and it built fine. But I tried to run a programmable filter that uses vtk.vtkExtractGrid() and it says it doesn't exist in the module. 

So I looked through the CMakeCache.txt and Module_vtkFiltersGeneral and Module_vtkFiltersExtraction were both set to INTERNAL and OFF. I couldn't figure out how to make them appear, so on a whim I changed them both to ON and reconfigured and regenerated. This made them appear in the ccmake screen. Then I built and no errors. 

However, vtkExtractGrid() is still not inside the python module vtk. But, in the install tree I have: 

> grep vtkExtractGrid * -R 
Binary file lib/paraview-3.14/vtkFiltersExtractionPython.so matches 
Binary file lib/paraview-3.14/libvtkFiltersParallelImaging-pv3.14.so.1 matches

Binary file lib/paraview-3.14/libvtkFiltersParallel-pv3.14.so.1 matches 

So I don't know why I don't have access to it from pvpython. 

Any ideas what went wrong?

I've updated the CoProcessing WIki.

Okay, thanks. I was following the directions at: 

http://paraview.org/Wiki/CoProcessing 

which do not mention anything about turning off QT-related things. 

Thanks,

Yes, you'll need X if QT is enabled. You'll have to turn off PARAVIEW_BUILD_QT_GUI as well. Note, additionally, you'll need to use OSMesa. Refer to instructions here: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView_And_Mesa_3D

Hi, 

I'm trying to build the code I just pulled on master: 

> git branch 
* master 

> git describe 
v3.14.1-2499-g16f07c1 

I set VTK_USE_X to OFF: 

> grep "USE_X" CMakeCache.txt 
VTK_USE_X:BOOL=OFF 

but it fails while building with: 

Linking CXX shared library ../../../lib/ libvtkGUISupportQt-pv3.14.so 
CMakeFiles/vtkGUISupportQt.dir/QVTKWidget.cxx.o: In function `QVTKWidget::x11_setup_window()':

make[1]: *** [VTK/GUISupport/Qt/CMakeFiles/vtkGUISupportQt.dir/all] Error 2 
make: *** [all] Error 2 

Am I missing something? Why is VTK looking for X if I said not to use it? Does not using X imply QT shouldn't be turned on? If so, should that be enforced in CMake? 

Thanks, 

Tim
