Summary0000096: Building ParaView + MPI with "WM_MPLIB=SYSTEMOPENMPI" fails
DescriptionThe variable "MPI_ARCH_PATH" is empty when using "WM_MPLIB=SYSTEMOPENMPI", so running "makeParaView -mpi" will not work without the needed path.

Fix: simply add this to settings.sh, after libDir is defined:
  export MPI_ARCH_PATH="${libDir%/*}"
TagsNo tags attached.

And it seems that this is also useful in makeParaViewFunctions, in the function "addMpiSupport()":
addCMakeVariable MPI_EXTRA_LIBRARY=$MPI_ARCH_PATH/lib/libmpi_cxx.so

This was tested on Ubuntu 10.04 i686 with "makeParaView -mpi -python", using the system's OpenMPI.

I confirm this on openSUSE 11.4.

Does paraview need the mpi_cxx library? It is a bit messy. Do you happen to know the equivalent syntax (to strip off lib) for csh?

Here you go:
setenv MPI_ARCH_PATH $libDir:h

Uhm, would it be too much to ask for a git repo for ThirdParty scripts? ;)

MPI_ARCH_PATH set to "${libDir%/*}".

Thanks for the fix.
