[Paraview] [EXTERNAL] paraview cmake can't find proper qt

[Scott, W Alan]

Jeff,
I probably hit Qt with too big of a hammer, but try the following (Python, but you get the idea).

I believe that the most important single line below is setting the MOC executable.

Alan


    '-DQT_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH='+qtInstallDir+'/include '+\
    '-DQT_MOC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH='+qtInstallDir+'/bin/moc ' +\
    '-DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH='+qtInstallDir+'/bin/qmake ' +\
    '-DQT_UIC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH='+qtInstallDir+'/bin/uic '

  # During build, we are having issues linking to Qt - specifically the
  #   libQtXml.so library.  Let's add the Qt library path to LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

  path = os.environ.get('LD_LIBRARY_PATH')
  os.environ['LD_LIBRARY_PATH']=qtInstallDir+'/lib/:'+path

Hi. My initial run of ccmake complained that my distro's qt was too old, so I downloaded and built/installed a supported version in /usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6. Thus I set:

//Where can the qmake-qt4 library be found QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/local/Trolltech/Qt-4.8.6/bin/qmake

However, even though ccmake completes (allowing the g key to be activated), the qt libraries/executables listed in CMakeCache.txt are all from the distro's versions (in /usr/lib64/qt4). E.g.,

//Path to a library.
QT_CUSTOMWIDGETPLUGIN_PLUGIN_RELEASE:FILEPATH=/usr/lib64/qt4/plugins/designer/libcustomwidgetplugin.so

//Path to a program.
QT_DBUSCPP2XML_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=/usr/lib64/qt4/bin/qdbuscpp2xml

  Is there a QTHOME or similar variable I need to set to get the right libraries/executables? Thanks.
