[Paraview] Superbuild: passing compiler flags

Thu Jun 13 13:47:26 EDT 2013

Curiously, if I rerun cmake in the Build/paraview/paraview-build directory using these same exact flags,  cmake seems to complete correctly as does the build.

MPI_C:FILEPATH=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/bin/mpicc
MPI_CXX:FILEPATH=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/bin/mpicxx
MPI_CXX_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/bin/mpicxx
MPI_CXX_COMPILE_FLAGS:STRING=
MPI_CXX_INCLUDE_PATH:STRING=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/include:/usr/include
MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES:STRING=-lmpi -lmpi++ -L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/lib
MPI_CXX_LINK_FLAGS:STRING=
MPI_C_COMPILER:FILEPATH=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/bin/mpicc
MPI_C_COMPILE_FLAGS:STRING=
MPI_C_INCLUDE_PATH:STRING=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/include:/usr/include
MPI_C_LIBRARIES:STRING=-lmpi -lmpi++ -L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/lib
MPI_C_LINK_FLAGS:STRING=
MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY:STRING=MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY-NOTFOUND
MPI_Fortran:FILEPATH=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/bin/mpif90
MPI_Fortran_INCLUDE_PATH:STRING=/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/include:/usr/include
MPI_Fortran_LIBRARIES:STRING=-lmpi -lmpi++ -L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/lib
MPI_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=-lmpi -lmpi++ -L/opt/sgi/mpt/mpt-2.07/lib

Hi Richard,

the solution seems to be elsewhere...

The variables that get propagated to ParaView don't have necessarily the same names. (I've listed the ones that are not using the same name)

    -DMPI_CXX_LIBRARIES:STRING=${PV_MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES}
    -DMPI_C_LIBRARIES:STRING=${PV_MPI_C_LIBRARIES}
    -DMPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY:STRING=${PV_MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY}
    -DMPI_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=${PV_MPI_LIBRARY}

Therefore you may need to duplicate some values and use PV_XXX as key.

Not sure that's intended, but I tried to set  -DPV_MPI_CXX_LIBRARIES:STRING="a b c d"
and it properly get pushed to the ParaView CMakeCache.txt.
