[Paraview] Building with OSMesa using CMake does not have the the correct variables.

[Magnus Elden]

I am using the latest PV source as of this date downloaded from the github
repo. I am also using CMake 3.5.2 to build for Visual Studio 2015 on Windows
10.

 

After configuring once I followed the instructions provided here
<http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/Setting_up_a_ParaView_Server#OSMesa_support>
and tried to search for the CMake variable OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR. However, it
does not show up. I only see the QT version of it: QT_QT OPENGL_INCLUDE_DIR.
I set the option to build qt gui to off and I set VTK_OPENGL_HAS_OSMESA to
true. 

 

Then I tried to look for the libraries libGL and libGLU, but none of those
is to be found inside the OSMesa build directory so I assumed that you are
talking about the standard library files so I left the OPENGL_gl_LIBRARY and
OPENGL_glu_LIBRARY variables alone. I set the osmesa library and include
library to osmesa.lib and to <OSMesa SOURCE DIR>/include and NOT the build
directory. The reason why I am doing this is because I was unable to install
using scons. It configures and builds just fine. What am I doing wrong?

 

These are the osmesa variables:

These are the OPENGL variables:

And these are some of the errors I get when I build it like this:
