You will probably have to use ParaView from CVS "Head" in order to fix the "Carbon/Cocoa" thing. There is a quick patch you can do to a stock ParaView 3.6.2 to fix the problem if you want. <http://www.bluequartz.net/cgi-bin/gitweb/gitweb.cgi?p=ParaView3.git;a=blob;f=CMakeLists.txt;h=34aee621d3888e3e5afea9fc2063963ab4dc0e53;hb=HEAD > will have the necessary code.

The download from nokia should be just fine.

Eric,

I have a couple of questions about building paraview with x86_64 architecture on OS-X:

1. You recommend building Qt 4.6.2 from source, but there is a binary version build with x86_64 and Cocoa available from http://qt.nokia.com/downloads/mac-os-cpp (the file is qt-mac-cocoa-opensource-4.6.2.dmg) . Is there any reason not to use this binary version of Qt instead of building Qt from source?

2. When configuring paraview 3.6.2, if I try to set VTK_USE_CARBON to OFF and VTK_USE_COCOA to ON, CMake just flips them back again when I hit Configure. Is there any way to force this so that it can be built with Cocoa?

Thanks,
Eric

Hey Karen,

No, the 3.6.1 binary for Intel is i386 architecture. Like Mike said yesterday, you'll have to build your own version of Qt 4.6.2 with x86_64 architecture and Cocoa, and then build ParaView from source against that Qt build, itself with x86_64 arch, too.

I'm not sure if there are any issues with 64-bit ParaView Python support in Leopard since for OS X 10.5 you can't get (as far as I know) a 64-bit python executable...?

Talk to you later,
-Eric
