[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] Selection ispector missing

I debugged it. The vtkSMGeneratedModules.h is not generated correctly. The header file is generated in CMakeLists.txt of SMApplication at line 131, when I print the custom command:
message("${kwprocessXML_location}
       ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/vtkSMGeneratedModules.h
       vtkSMDefaultModules Interface GetInterfaces
       ${resourceFiles}")
add_custom_command(
  OUTPUT ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/vtkSMGeneratedModules.h
  DEPENDS ${resourceFiles} kwProcessXML
  COMMAND ${kwprocessXML_location}
       ${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/vtkSMGeneratedModules.h
       vtkSMDefaultModules Interface GetInterfaces
       ${resourceFiles}
  COMMENT "Generating headers for ServerManager XMLs")

It outputs a correct string:

E:/Develop/win32-msvc90-build/Paraview-4.1.0/bin/$(OutDir)/vtkkwProcessXML-pv4.1.exe
       E:/Develop/win32-msvc90-build/Paraview-4.1.0/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/vtkSMGeneratedModules.h
       vtkSMDefaultModules Interface GetInterfaces
       D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/filters.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/sources.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/readers.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/utilities.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/rendering.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/views_and_representations.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/3d_widgets.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/internal_writers.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/writers.xml;D:/Develop/Source/ParaView-v4.1.0-RC1-source/ParaViewCore/ServerManager/SMApplication/Resources/pythonfilter.xml

So the pythonfilter.xml is correctly in the list. It seems that the command is not reexecuted from cmake or the exe is not allowed to overwrite to old header. I executed the stuff manually over cmd and now It worked and compiled. Maybe someone can reproduce that strange behaviour....

Thanks for help, 
Gerald

Can you try a clean build? It's unclear exactly why this this should happen. We do build with Python 2.7* on WIndows.

Since some functionality from FindData could indeed be kept accessible even not built with Python, I've reported a bug (http://paraview.org/Bug/view.php?id=14471). However, I'd strongly suggest enabling Python. Are you not building with Python due to build issues or site limitations?
