Hi Utkarsh,
Multiple input ports are exactly what I want.
But I can't get it to work. I've attached my last XML plugin attempt with
different port_index definition.
When I try to use it, I have the following error:
/ParaViewVTK/Common/ExecutionModel/vtkAlgorithm.cxx, line 893
vtkPythonProgrammableFilter (0x6c7a510): Attempt to connect input port
index 1 for an algorithm with 1 input ports.
Should I add something to tell ParaView that this filter has multiple input
ports?
Should I use a different class than the vtkPythonProgrammableFilter?
Regards,
