ParaView is an application for visualization of large data sets. It runs on distributed and shared memory parallel as well as single processor systems.

The notation denotes a variable (such as directory name, file name, user name, etc.) that user has to substitute.

If a backslash (\) appears in a shell command, then it should be treated as a line continuation, i.e., it could be ignored if the user types in the shell command.

ROCKETCALC provides a shell script (along with source code) that installs the binaries of ParaView. The following are the steps to install the binaries of ParaView using the shell script.

  • Download the file paraview-1.2.1-1-rocketcalc.tar.bz2.
  • Unpack the tarball file:
    tar jxf paraview-1.2.1-1-rocketcalc.tar.bz2
    This will create directory paraview-1.2.1-1-rocketcalc.
  • Change directory to paraview-1.2.1-1-rocketcalc:
    cd paraview-1.2.1-1-rocketcalc
  • Become root:
    su
    The user has to enter the root password. This step is not necessary. A regular user may install ParaView.
  • The user should move (or delete) old ParaView installation if he/she is planning to install it in the same location. The shell script will install ParaView in
    /paraview/1.2.1
    The default value for is /usr/local.
  • Run the installation script:
    ./paraviewinstall
    This script will prompt the user questions and then and install the binaries of ParaView.
