[Paraview] ParaView-Superbuild Win10 Errors

Tue Mar 27 10:37:00 EDT 2018

 Hi Shawn,

thanks a lot for the tip, configuring worked with the Visual Studio 12.0
compiler! Now I am getting a lot of build errors though.

C:\Tools\paraview\superbuild\hdf5\src\src\H5Ztrans.c(1135) : warning C4244:

These are some examples. My it be possible that the ninja version is not
suited either? Do you know what ninja version you were building the
superbuild with?

Thanks a lot,
Jamil

(P.s. Sorry Shawn for my posting mistake)
