[Paraview] Fail to build vtkIO in 3.8.0 on Windows7 64bit MSVC2008

[Scott, W Alan]

Not sure if this helps, but I don't have any SDK's explicitly installed at all on my machine.  I am  64 bit windows 7, using the MSVC 2008 (9.0) compiler.  I also looked in my path settings, and no SDK is to be found.  Maybe try uninstalling the SDK, be sure to remove the SDK references in your path settings (and other environment settings), cmake and recompile from scratch?

Hi Dave,
I tried it with both 6.0A and 7.1 SDK by running a tool coming with the SDK. But the compilation problem stays.

Best,

I don't think changing the SDK that Visual Studio is using is supported. VS 2008 uses the 6.0A SDK. If you want to use the 7.1 SDK then you probably need to use VS 2010. I suspect there are configuration checks that CMake assumes if VS 2008 then use SDK 6.0A conventions.

That said, ParaView should compile fine with Visual Stodio 2008 or 2010 using the appropriate SDK.

Hi All,
I am building ParaView 3.8.0 from source on a Windows7 64bit machine with MSVC2008 and Windows SDK7.1.
I ran into a lot of compilation errors regarding redefinitions in ws2def.h and WinSock2.h. Here are some of these errors in vtkIO project:
---------------------

---------------------

I have made sure before every #include <windows.h> there is #include <WinSock2.h>. But that did not mitigate the problem. Can anyone help please? Thanks a lot.

Best,
