[Trilinos-Users] Building Zoltan on Windows

[Bartlett, Roscoe A.]

Dave,

It is flagged as being disabled by default on Windows in the file PackagesList.cmake with the command:


TRIBITS_DISABLE_PACKAGE_ON_PLATFORMS(Zoltan Windows)


This makes the disabled by default in all logic but I think still allows you to try to enable it (in case you want to try to get it to work for some reason). 

Just curious, if you grep the 'cmake' output for "Zoltan", what does it show?  

I should think about how to handle situations like this.  On one hand, we don't want users like you to think that a package might be supported on a platform when it is not but we don't want to stop a very eager user who wants to try to fix a port from enabling it either.

What should the behavior be?
