[Paraview] Problem building plugin against ParaView 4.2.0

[Jim.Eliot at awe.co.uk]

Hi Bertwim,

This worked for me - cmake now finds Qt and builds the plugin. Many thanks.

It isn't clear to me why it previously worked with PV 4.1.0 but not with 4.2.0. I guess it doesn't matter as long as it's working :)

Kind regards,
Jim

Jim,

I had similar issues you describe. They were gone when I made sure that, before actually calling cmake,  the right 'qmake' was in the PATH  (i.e. 'which qmake'  points to the qmake of the AQT-version your expect).  This assumes that you do have a Qt installation which is complete.
In other words:
1. ensure qmake of the Qt distribution you expect is in your path
2. ensure your paraview build directory is clean ( rm -rf   <path>/build/* )
3. start the cmake configuration.

Hope this works for you too,

Regards,
Bertwim

Hello everyone,

I am trying to build a file reader plugin against ParaView 4.2.0 and have been experiencing some difficulties. Qt is not found by cmake during the build process causing it to fail.

To illustrate the issue, I created the following simplified CMakeLists.txt file:

    CMAKE_MINIMUM_REQUIRED
    FIND_PACKAGE(ParaView REQUIRED)
    INCLUDE(${PARAVIEW_USE_FILE})

When I call cmake with ParaView_DIR pointing at my 4.1.0 build Qt is found, but with 4.2.0 Qt is NOT found.

ParaView was built using Superbuild and Qt was built as part of that process. Should Qt be detected from ParaViewConfig.cmake?

Is this a change in behaviour between 4.1.0 and 4.2.0? Do I somehow need to specify the location of Qt manually?

Any ideas?

Thank you,
Jim
