Hello Dear paraview developers!

It seems like a CMake issue.

I have added my custom filter to root CMakeLists.txt:

`set(autoload_plugins ...`

And to

`set(paraview_default_plugins`

However my plugin is still not built as a DLL.  
Why so?

Thanks

How did you try to add your plugin to the build? The `autoload_plugins` modifies the `plugin.xml` file and the latter sets up CMake variables for the plugin build API; neither actually schedule any plugins to be built.
