[vtkusers] Problems building the Piston Library

[UJJWAL aryan]

Hi All,

I was trying to install *vtk 6.0.0.rc3* on my system and it was showing the
error PISTON_INCLUDE_DIR NOT FOUND. So, I decided to download and install
LANL's piston library (http://viz.lanl.gov/projects/PISTON.html) . While
building the Piston Library , it gave the following error :-

*nvcc fatal   : A single input file is required for a non-link phase when
an outputfile is specified. CMake Error at
tutorial1GPU_generated_tutorial1.cu.o.cmake:206 (message):*
* Error generating
/usr/local/piston/build/tutorial/CMakeFiles/tutorial1GPU.dir//./tutorial1GPU_generated_tutorial1.cu.o
*

So, I opened *tutorial1GPU_generated_tutorial1.cu.o.cmake *in Vim and on
line 80 i noticed something unusual. I noticed that in
set(CUDA_NVCC_INCLUDE_ARGS ... only a part of the string was displayed in
red while remaining part was simple white. The line was very long and i
think, that after a certain number of characters like 5000 or so, the
system was not recognizing any other character as a string.

I am not sure but maybe that is the source of the problem. Kindly take a
look into it and enlighten. I am attaching the *
tutorial1GPU_generated_tutorial1.cu.o.cmake *with this mail.
