[Paraview] Paraview and QT

[Scott, W Alan]

I believe that I am using severe overkill, but we build using qt4.2.3, then set the following cmake variables that tells ParaView where to find Qt-4.2.3.  
 
    -DQT_INCLUDE_DIR:PATH=stuff
    -DQT_LIBRARIES_DIR:PATH=stuff
    -DQT_INSTALL_LIBS:PATH=stuff
    -DQT_QTASSISTANT_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=stuff'
    -DQT_QTASSISTANT_LIBRARY_DEBUG:FILEPATH=stuff
    -DQT_MOC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=stuff
    -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=stuff'
    -DQT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE_FINDQT:FILEPATH=stuff'
    -DQT_UIC_EXECUTABLE:FILEPATH=stuff'
 
Qt is just built as follows:
cd to your source directory
./configure --prefix='instillation directory'
make
make install
 
When we make an XP build, we just set the QT_QMAKE_EXECUTABLE, and the rest automagically works.

Got about 96% of it built uding QT 4.3.0 however it bombed out with the following message:
 
... 
96%] Building CXX object Qt/Components/CMakeFiles/pqComponents.dir/pqKeyFrameEditor.o
/usr/include/qt4/QtGui/qdialog.h: In member function ‘void QDialog::qt_check_for_QOBJECT_macro(const T&) const [with T = pqKeyFrameTypeDialog]’:

make[1]: *** [Qt/Components/CMakeFiles/pqComponents.dir/all] Error 2 
make: *** [all] Error 2
 
I am not a QT expert but is anyone working on it for QT 4.3.0? This is because my linux installation is already using this version. What I am hoping for is a simple fix that will let this version of QT be used and also the older versions.  
 
Thanks
