[Paraview] [*] Re: [*] Build problem

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

The Wiki page pretty much covers all that's necessary to build the
software. You'll have to be a bit more elaborate than "many types of
errors" before we can offer some concrete help. Are you using Qt
binaries downloaded from Nokia's website? As mentioned on their
download page, Nokia's binaries are built using MinGW and cannot be
used with Visual Studio builds. You need to build Qt from source using
visual studio.

Yes, you can add python programmable filters in the .exe version of ParaView.
