OK, thanks, that gets me a bit farther. I pointed it at a successful build of Catalyst. But now when I run cmake.sh, I get this error (and more later)
-- Performing Test Support for 64 bit file systems CMake Error: TRY_RUN() invoked in cross-compiling mode, please set the following cache variables appropriately: CMAKE_REQUIRE_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT (advanced) CMAKE_REQUIRE_LARGE_FILE_SUPPORT__TRYRUN_OUTPUT (advanced) … CMake Error: TRY_RUN() invoked in cross-compiling mode, please set the following cache variables appropriately: VTK_TYPE_CHAR_IS_SIGNED (advanced) For details see /collab/usr/global/tools/Kitware/Catalyst/bgqos_0/catalyst_backend_crossbuild/TryRunResults.cmake What am I to make of these cryptic errors?

An example is vtkWrapPython, who's job during the compile process is to parse the C++ header files and spit out additional header and cxx files that make the originals callable from python. All of those c++ files are later compiled for the target environment. In cross compilation the helper executables have to be compiled to run in the host environment. The source code that the helpers produce has to be compiled to run in the compute environment. So build paraview (or better yet just the CompileTools target to save time) once for the host. Then in a different directory build paraview again, using the toolchain you are now using to tell it what compilers and libraries to use for the compute nodes, and in this build tell cmake where the host tools can be found. See the ParaViewSuperbuild project's CMake/crosscompile/bgq_gnu directory for how I set this up on mira. David E DeMarle Kitware, Inc.
