Build paraview as usual, ignore all the guff about
PARAVIEW_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_MODULES, remove this from your paraview build,
remove any CSCS addons you might have specified from paraview 'core'
build.<br>
<br>
Then build a new new project which will be plugins, using the
cmakelists from the root of CSCS stuff. Enter the paraview build dir,
enable CSCSCommon and netcdf, (netcdf will pick up common when it needs
it - fingers crossed).<br>
<br>
then try making it all. Of course it won't actually work, but that's
what I've been trying to say all week!<br>
When it fails, ask Burlen for his netCDF adaptor stuff from visit and
we can all get on with other stuff...<br>

<pre wrap="">John,
I must be missing something. I did as you specified below, then went to
the ParaView directory,
Ran ccmake several times, enabling the correct options per the CSCS web
site(PARAVIEW_EXTRA_EXTERNAL_MODULES,
PARAVIEW_USE_CSCSNetCDF, and the source directory variable) , and ran
make, but again, the same include file was not located, even though I
see it is there in the vtkCSCS directory tree.
Was I supposed to run ccmake under the vtkCSCS trunk before running
ccmake for ParaView? I did try to do this,
Only to get an error concering "Policy" and the directions for resolving
the error were unclear.
I am a novice concerning ccmake, as the first time I have used it was
last week.
Thanks.

My Bad. One of the changes I made to the netCDF code was to handle
series of files (one file per process, or one per timestep) using
another class in vtkCSCSCommon Best thing is check out all of it from
here...
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://svn.cscs.ch/vtkContrib/trunk/vtkCSCS/">https://svn.cscs.ch/vtkContrib/trunk/vtkCSCS/</a>
and use the cmakelists in the root pv3-plugins folder.
you need CSCSCommomn and netCDF enabled.
Fix the netCDF reader and send me the patches please :)

<pre wrap="">Katie,
I was able to check out vtkNetCDF from the SVN server; I had tried
before using the web site's instructions, but it wouldn't work, I
suppose because of our firewall; however the "https" in the URL that
Mr. Biddiscome gave us did make a difference.
However, when I attempted to build ParaView 3.4 with that vtkNetCDF
module, I got an error once again, this time when for
vtkNetCDFReader.cxx; what is missing is FileSeriesFinder.h.
I cannot find that include file anywhere, in ParaView3.4, ParaView3.3,

Just looking again at the error messages makes me realize thet you're
using a very old vtkCSCSnetCDF the version in here
<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext" href="https://svn.cscs.ch/vtkContrib/trunk/vtkCSCS/vtkNetCDF/">https://svn.cscs.ch/vtkContrib/trunk/vtkCSCS/vtkNetCDF/</a> is much more
recent and will at least compile without errors. It ewas intended for
meteo data (ocean/atmosphere) and so you should get something out of
it but the changes I made a few months back will have broken the core
load of data depending on which convention you are using.
My intention was to create subclasses for each supported convention,
rather than try to support all of them with aton of options - which is
