[Paraview] Question about build paraview

[Cory Quammen]

It's kind of a quirk of CMake, but once CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER is set by
the initial CMake configuration, you can't change it. So what should
you do?

The solution is to set an environment variable named
CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER in your shell prior to running CMake for the first
time. Set that variable to the path of version of gcc or icc you want
to use, and that should do it. You may also need to set
CMAKE_C_COMPILER as well.

HTH,
Cory
