[Paraview] Visualizing data from the client computer

2010-07-16 Thread Ben Medina
Hello all,

I have a C++ based application, and I'm using ParaView to do
visualization. A key criterion for choosing ParaView was its ability
to load data that lives on a remote server. Now I have a different
visualization workflow that I need to support: the data all lives
locally in memory on the client. Since I'm already using ParaView for
other visualization purposes, I'd like to use it for this new workflow
as well.

So essentially, I have a vtkDataObject sitting in memory on the
client. Is there a way to push that data into ParaView? Or should I
just use VTK directly on the client?

One other question: is any of the new InfoVis stuff in VTK planned on
being exposed in ParaView? If not, how hard would it be for me to do
this myself?

Thanks,
Ben

[Paraview] Problems building 3.8.0 for 64-bit Mac

2010-06-29 Thread Ben Medina
Hello,

I just downloaded the 3.8.0 source and am trying to compile a 64-bit
version on Mac OS 10.5. During the build of the pqWidgets target, this
error occurs:

.../ParaView-3.8.0/Qt/Widgets/pqProgressBarHelper.cxx:37: error: type
'class QObject' is not a direct base of 'pqProgressBarHelper'

There seems to be an error in the source. Here's the class declaration
in pqProgressBarHelper.h:

#ifdef Q_WS_MAC
class pqProgressBarHelper : public QWidget
#else
class pqProgressBarHelper : public QObject
#endif

But then in the constructor in pqProgressBarHelper.cxx is this:

pqProgressBarHelper::pqProgressBarHelper(pqProgressBar* p)
: QObject(p), Progress(p)
{
}

Any ideas?

Thanks,
Ben

[Paraview] Installing ParaView libraries with my app

2010-04-08 Thread Ben Medina
Hello all,

I have an app that is dependent on ParaView, so I need to install the
ParaView libraries along with my application. I am, of course, using
CMake and CPack. Is there an easy way to do this, or do I need to call
install() for each of the libraries my app depends on?

Thanks,
Ben

Re: [Paraview] Building a distributable development tree

2010-04-07 Thread Ben Medina
Dave,
I'm updating now, and I'll let you know how it goes.

A related question is how to build the dev tree on Windows. How do I
get both debug and release versions of the libraries into one package?
Or is it safe to just include the release version?

Thanks,
Ben

Note: I didn't mean to take this discussion off-list, sorry.

 Hi Ben,
 Try updating again when you get a chance. I found some CMake code that was
 overriding the Development Component thus causing it to not get installed.
 Thanks!

 Thanks, Dave! I'll try out the qch fix soon. Other than that, make

 now.

 I do have PARAVIEW_INSTALL_DEVELOPMENT turned on, but the resulting
 tar.gz is not usable for development. My CMake cache is attached.

 Thank,
 Ben

  Hi Ben,
  If you do an update it shouldn't attempt to install the qch file. Also
  so
  you know, the ParaViewConfig.cmake file doesn't get installed if
  PARAVIEW_INSTALL_DEVELOPMENT is turned off.
  Let me know if you have anymore issues. Thanks!

  I'll
  fix that right now.
  Thanks for your feedback!

  Hello all,
 
  I've been trying to generate a development tree of ParaView (based on
  CVS head as of a few hours ago) that I can distribute to other
  in-house developers so that they don't have to build ParaView
  themselves. I've been following the instructions here:
 
  http://www.paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView:Build_And_Install#Install_ParaView
 
  I have set the CMake variables as described (with
  PARAVIEW_BUILD_QT_GUI OFF). Building and packaging works correctly,
  but the resultant tarball (built via cpack -G TGZ --config
 
  {ParaViewBuildDir}/Servers/Executables/CPackParaViewServersConfig.cmake)
  contains only lib and bin directories; there is no include directory,
  nor a ParaViewConfig.cmake file.
 
  make install seems more promising, as I do end up with a more complete
  tree. However, the install fails with the following error:
  CMake Error at Documentation/cmake_install.cmake:36 (FILE):
   file INSTALL cannot find
 
 
   /home/ben/3rdpartylibs/paraview/3.7b/unpacked-download-directory/linuxg29x64.26/Documentation/paraview.qch.
  Call Stack (most recent call first):
   cmake_install.cmake:95 (INCLUDE)
 
  Can anyone tell what's going wrong?
 
  Thanks,
  Ben

Re: [Paraview] Building a distributable development tree

2010-04-07 Thread Ben Medina
Thanks. I don't care about the pdb files for now. I just want linking
and running to work for them when they build debug versions of our
app. I guess I'll just tell them to try linking against the release
build I'm providing, and if it fails, they'll have to build ParaView
themselves.

What are you guys planning on shipping for 3.8? Just the release libraries?

- Ben

 I don't think you can do both. Specifying -C Release/Debug tells cpack
 which directory to grab everything out of. Also if you do Debug I don't
 believe there are install rules to grab the .pdb symbol files. Though, that
 probably wouldn't be hard to do.
