Modify bv_cgns.sh to use CMake for linux builds

[aowen87]

The ticket is for linux builds, as the cmake build system may not work for OSX. From my attempts to build cgns on my linux system using build_visit (and having it fail with zlib problems)I used CGNS's cmake build system instead, with success. Here's a patch for 3.2.1 src/CMakeLists.txt file (to fix issues) Left file: /home/biagas2/BV290/cgnslib_3.2.1/src/CMakeLists.txt Right file: /home/biagas2/BV290/cgnslib_3.2.1-mod/src/CMakeLists.txt 107,108c107,108 < foreach(PATH ${${INPUT_PATH_VARIABLE}}) < file(TO_NATIVE_PATH ${PATH} NATIVE_PATH) - > foreach(nPATH ${${INPUT_PATH_VARIABLE}}) > file(TO_NATIVE_PATH ${nPATH} NATIVE_PATH) 110c110 < endforeach(PATH ${${INPUT_PATH_VARIABLE}}) - > endforeach(nPATH ${${INPUT_PATH_VARIABLE}}) 130c130 < native_paths(${ZLIB_LIBRARY} ZLIBLIB) - > native_paths(ZLIB_LIBRARY ZLIBLIB) I had used hdf5 szip zlib for build_visit command line, so based on that (and building shared libraries), here are the cmake commands I used to build cgns from scratch: -DCGNS_BUILD_SHARED:BOOL=true \ -DCGNS_ENABLE_64BIT:BOOL=true \ -DCGNS_ENABLE_HDF5:BOOL=true \ DHDF5_INCLUDE_PATH:PATH=/home/biagas2/visit/thirdparty/2.9.0/hdf5/1.8.7/linuxx86_64_gcc-4.4/include \ DHDF5_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/home/biagas2/visit/thirdparty/2.9.0/hdf5/1.8.7/linuxx86_64_gcc-4.4/lib/libhdf5.so \ -DHDF5_NEED_SZIP:BOOL=true \ DSZIP_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/home/biagas2/visit/thirdparty/2.9.0/szip/2.1/linuxx86_64_gcc-4.4/lib/libsz.so \ -DHDF5_NEED_ZLIB:BOOL=true \ DZLIB_LIBRARY:FILEPATH=/home/biagas2/visit/thirdparty/2.9.0/zlib/1.2.7/linuxx86_64_gcc-4.4/lib/libz.so \ DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX:PATH=/home/biagas2/visit/thirdparty/2.9.0/cgns/3.2.1/linuxx86_64_gcc-4.4

@biagas is this still an issue?

[biagas]

There are currently no problems building cgns with the current bv_cgns.sh that I know of.

That said, when we update cgns to a newer version, we might want to consider using their cmake build system.
