I did use CMake to build a simple fake fortran simulation code linked to Paraview coprocessing library version 3.98.1, so I am hoping I can use that CMake-generated Makefile (or other CMake-generated files) to determine which Paraview modules need to be linked
to for in-situ viz, especially those modules related off-screen rendering and image writers. This way, I don’t have to use CMake to build Phasta but instead can leverage the existing Phasta Makefiles with sufficient number of Paraview module libraries related
to in-situ viz linked. In fact, I have already got phasta with in-situ run mostly working – it is just that “WriteAllImages” part does not work, which makes me suspect some offscreen rendering-related libraries may not be linked. I did link to Mesa library
for off-screen rendering. I guess I just want to check with you to get expert’s advice to see if there is any simpler way to fix this problem without rebuilding phasta with CMake. Otherwise, I’ll just go ahead to try to build Phasta with CMake if you think
that is the best way to proceed at this point.</span><o:p></o:p></p>

<br>
I am working to build an in-situ viz for a phasta simulation. I am able to build phasta linked to ParaView v3.98.1 coprocessing library and run phasta simulation linked to coprocessing library to process a python pipeline in-situ for each time step iteration.
In the pipeline, there are two rendered views with each view containing a slice and an isocontour showing a bubble in the slice, which are set to be exported to png images when exporting the pipeline. This phasta simulation with in-situ viz can run through
if I comment out "WriteAllImages" in the pipeline python code and the output data (parallel unstructured grid writer output) can be written out as expected during the simulation iteration. However, when I uncomment out "WriteAllImages" statement, I got a "Generic
Warning: In /../ParaView-3.98.1-source/VTK/Parallel/MPI/vtkMPICommunicator.cxx, line 72<br>
MPI had an error" and phasta simulation code then exits and no images are written out. So I know "WriteAllImages" causes this run time problem. I suspect I may not link all shared libs that are needed for off-screen rendering and then export to png images.
Here are the libraries I have linked to currently in the Makefile:<br>
<br>
-lPhastaAdaptor -lvtkFortranAdaptor-pv3.98 -lvtkCoProcessor-pv3.98 -lvtkCoProcessorPython -lvtkCoProcessorPython27D-pv3.98 -lvtkPVPythonSupport-pv3.98 -lvtkPVServerManagerRenderingPython -lvtkPVServerManagerCorePython -lvtkPVServerManagerDefaultPython -lvtkPVServerManagerApplicationPython
-lvtkFiltersCore-pv3.98 -lvtkFiltersCorePython27D-pv3.98 -lvtkFiltersGeneral-pv3.98 -lvtkFiltersGeneralPython27D-pv3.98 -lvtkFiltersImaging-pv3.98 -lvtkFiltersImagingPython27D-pv3.98 -lOSMesa.so<br>
<br>
I am hoping someone could spot some libraries that I have missed here to get "WriteAllImages" work for in-situ viz, or perhaps there are something else I did not do correctly.
<br>
<br>
Many thanks for any suggestions or advice you can offer regarding this problem.<span style="color:#888888"><br>
