[Paraview] ParaView-Superbuild Win10 Errors

Wed Mar 28 08:23:14 EDT 2018

Hi Aron,

thank you for the reply. Youre right, there was an error way at the
beginning concerning quat.lib.
It seems like linking vrpn.lib failed because quat.lib cannot be recognized.
Here is the full error (Using Win10, Compiler Visual Studio12.0 (cl.exe),
ninja build system.
Also, I enabled VRPN_USE_HID and disabled VRPN_USE_LOCAL_HIDAPI).

I checked for quat.lib but there is only quat.dll in the superbuild folder.
Is there a flag to set for building the quat library statically or to tell
vrpn to look for a dll?

Thank a lot
Jamil
