I think that information is out of date. I believe that is done
automatically now.

Otherwise Andy is right. Putting the filter inside a plugin a good way to
go. The plugin infrastructure will make it so that when you provide the XML
that describes your vtk class, ParaView's build system will automatically
wrap it into a proxy and python class so that ParaView will be able to use
it.

Also, I recommend trying it on a local static build first. That way the
build time will be less and development will be quicker. Once you can load
you plugin locally, then you should only have to compile on titan once.
