Paraview 4.1.0 cmake compiling error CUDA Convolution Driver
 

Hi, All

I'm trying to build ParaView 4.1.0 from source on debian 7.0 64 bits

I'm currently using the makeParaview script that is included in OpenFOAM 2.3

When running ccmake, I get this error:

error: #error -- unsupported GNU version! gcc 4.7 and up are not supported!

CMake Error at cuda compile generated CUDA ConvolutionDriver.cu.o.cmake: 206

Thanks for reading

Greetings Juan,

I hope you're referring to the script makeParaView4, as the script makeParaView is meant for ParaView 3.12.0.

Well, this is a tricky situation. It depends on a few details:

1. Do you want to build ParaView with CUDA support?
2. If #1 is yes, then can you update the CUDA version you have installed?
3. If #1 is yes and #2 is no, are you using a custom GCC 4.7 build or are you using Debian's GCC?
   • If you're using Debian's GCC, then you should upgrade CUDA as well.

If #1 is no... then try editing the file "ParaView-4.1.0/Plugins/SciberQuestToolKit/SciberQuest/CMakeLists.txt" and find these two lines:
And replace them with:
And then run makeParaView4 once again.

Best regards,
Bruno

Greetings Bruno,
I’m apologize for my delay to answer your comments about installation of
Paraview 4.1
I will try to implement your recommendations as soon as possible.
Best regards,
Juan C.

Hi, Bruno
I followed your statements about installation of Paraview 4.1.
In my particular case. I decided to build ParaView without CUDA support, to do that I modified the file “CmakeLists.txt” as you comment.
Fortunately these changes made that Paraview works properly.
Thanks for your help.
Best regards,
Juan C.
