GitLab

using arch linux up to date (cmake 3.13.4, gcc 8.2.1, ninja 1.9.0). I just build master (09a6d398) with this cmake config : devConf.cmake (mainly activating python, mpi and testing). Compilation worked fine (excepted the binaries location, as mentionned in issue #18776 (closed) )

Then, I turned PARAVIEW_BUILD_EXAMPLES to ON and rebuild.

observations

• 13664 targets to rebuild: is it expected ?
• 'bin' directory created, with copy of previous binaries
• 'Examples' directory created but 'empty' (see bellow)
• no examples binaries found

details

$ ls Examples
CMakeFiles  cmake_install.cmake  CTestTestfile.cmake

$ ninja -t targets all | grep -i examples

$ ninja Examples/all

$ find . -name "Example"

I expected to find the Catalyst examples (e.g. the CxxParticlePathExample binary file) but nothing is returned.
