I’m building ParaView Superbuild on MacOS and I want to know what to do after I generate with `cmake-gui`
This is what I have done:
```auto
Install Python 2.7.16
Install Ninja (brew install ninja)
Open cmake-gui (/Applications/CMake.app/Contents/bin/cmake-gui)
Browse Source: /Users/mv/Desktop/pv/paraview-superbuild
Browse Build: /Users/mv/Desktop/pv/build
Configure and chosed the options:
Generator: Ninja
Use default native compilers
Add Entry:
CMAKE_OSX_SDK: macosx10.15
Generate
```
It seems to go without a problem
Now what?
I have tried `make` or `make install` but nothing
```auto
➜ build make install
make: Nothing to be done for `install'.
➜ build make
make: *** No targets specified and no makefile found. Stop.
```

Alright! That worked!
I seem to have problems with qt and I don’t even know whats going on

Any idea on how to fix it?
Or maybe can I point the paraview\_superbuild to an instalation of qt and avoid this problem?

IIRC, the `ninja` generator is not supported on macOS in the superbuild. Use the regular `Makefile` generator instead.

Well, `bigmac` uses makefiles for some reason, but it should be supported (Ninja is the only generator I ever use at least).
I suspect the Qt error is actually much further up the stack. We usually use a qt.io-provided Qt on macOS, so I recommend doing that.

Can you give some more info about this?
Thanks!

If I use `Unix Makefiles` as the generator and then execute `make install`.
First I get the error
```auto
/Users/mv/Desktop/pv/build/superbuild/qt5/src/qtbase/src/platformsupport/fontdatabases/mac/qfontengine_coretext.mm:833:20: error: qualified reference to 'QFixed' is a constructor name rather than a type in this context
return QFixed::QFixed(int(CTFontGetUnitsPerEm(ctfont)));
```
And after removing the prefix `QFixed::`
I execute `make install` again and get a lot of errors, example:
```auto

You can get the `.dmg` file by going to the appropriate version directory under here: [https://download.qt.io/official\_releases/qt/](https://download.qt.io/official_releases/qt/)
I suspect that build failures will happen because when Apple changes things, Qt is quite sensitive to it, so newer macOS releases probably can’t build old Qt releases.
