Summary0014855: VisItBridge not compiling anymore
DescriptionHi

I want to use VisItBridge, so I tried to compile the repository :
ParaView-v4.1.0/Examples/Plugins/VisItReader

First, during the cmake step, I had the following error :
CMake Error at CMakeLists.txt:25 (ADD_VISIT_PLUGIN_READER):
  Unknown CMake command "ADD_VISIT_PLUGIN_READER".
-- Configuring incomplete, errors occurred!

So I added
set(VisItBridgePlugin_SOURCE_DIR ...
set(AVT_DATABASE_SOURCE_DIR ...
include(${VisItBridgePlugin_SOURCE_DIR}/CMake/VisItCommon.cmake)
in the file
ParaView-v4.1.0/Examples/Plugins/VisItReader/CMakeLists.txt

Then, by typing "make" I had this error :
Linking CXX shared library libVisItReaderExample.so
/usr/bin/ld: ne peut trouver -lvtkVisItAVTAlgorithms
collect2: erreur: ld a retourné 1 code d'état d'exécution
make[2]: *** [libVisItReaderExample.so] Erreur 1
make[1]: *** [CMakeFiles/VisItReaderExample.dir/all] Erreur 2

If I want to succeed I need to remove vtkVisItAVTAlgorithms from TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES in
ParaView-v4.1.0/Examples/Plugins/VisItReader/CMakeLists.txt

My questions are :
1/ Is this example obsolete ? Or in other words, do you still work on this ?
2/ If yes, could you fix erros I mentioned ? Like this we will able to compile Examples/Plugins/VisItReader without changing the CMakeLists file by hand

Thank you for your answers

Ben,

This functionality may indeed have been lost during migration to VTK modules. We should fix this.

Hi,

This bug still exists in Paraview 4.3.1 and Paraview master.

Moreover, in the file vtkVisItReader*SM.xml generated by cmake, these lines are missing from the <SourceProxy> section (and must be add manually before make if we want our reader to be listed in the open file dialog box):

     <Hints>
        <ReaderFactory extensions="lata"
               file_description="lata Files">
        </ReaderFactory>
     </Hints>

Can you fix it in a next release? Thanks.
