Hello. I have problems when i’m trying to run catalyst example

As far as I understand, the problem occurs when executing the CatalystAdaptor::Execute(timestamp, time, grid, attributes). It doesn’t matter if I run on one processor or several - the problem still remains. Could you tell me how this can be solved? Thanks

I’m using paraview v 5.10.1, example is [https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/tree/v5.10.1/Examples/Catalyst2/CxxFullExample](https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/-/tree/v5.10.1/Examples/Catalyst2/CxxFullExample)

Uhh. Bus errors usually mean something went _very_ wrong with pointers. Can you perhaps stick a debugger on this to see where it might be going badly?
