I've never used the file series reader outside of ParaView proxies, but I'm guessing you need to set the FileNameMethod ivar.
restartedReader->SetFileNameMethod("SetFileName"); might do the trick. -Ken **** Kenneth Moreland *** Sandia National Laboratories *********** *** *** *** email: kmo...@sandia.gov ** *** ** phone: (505) 844-8919 *** web: http://www.cs.unm.edu/~kmorel From: "Andreyev, Andrey" <aandre...@hpti.com<mailto:aandre...@hpti.com>> Date: Fri, 3 Jun 2011 16:38:13 +0000 To: Robert Maynard <robert.mayn...@kitware.com<mailto:robert.mayn...@kitware.com>> Cc: "paraview@paraview.org<mailto:paraview@paraview.org>" <paraview@paraview.org<mailto:paraview@paraview.org>> Subject: Re: [Paraview] Using vtkFileSeriesReader with vtkSpyPlotReader Hi Robert, Thank you for the response. I can read in individual files. But I have a sample data set which has a text file named sample.spct-timeseries. When I give that file to SpyPlotReader, it doesn't recognize and when I ran Paraview through the debugger while opening that file it instantiated a vtkFileSeriesReader. This is now the source of my confustion. Thank you, Andrey Andreyev ________________________________ From: Robert Maynard [robert.mayn...@kitware.com<mailto:robert.mayn...@kitware.com>] Sent: Friday, June 03, 2011 12:27 PM To: Andreyev, Andrey Cc: paraview@paraview.org<mailto:paraview@paraview.org> Subject: Re: [Paraview] Using vtkFileSeriesReader with vtkSpyPlotReader Hi, The SpyPlotReader already handle file series. The file extension just need to be a numeric value ie, spcth-a.0,spcth-a.1,spcth-a.2 while the name of the file start with spct.

But I cannot figure out how to transfer the information from the meta file (*.spcth-timeseries) to the spyplot reader. a section of my code: vtkFileSeriesReader* restartReader=vtkFileSeriesReader::New(); vtkSpyPlotReader* cthReader=vtkSpyPlotReader::New(); vtkDummyController* controller=vtkDummyController::New(); cthReader->SetGlobalController(controller); restartReader->UseMetaFileOn(); restartReader->SetMetaFileName(filename.c_str()); restartReader->SetReader(cthReader); But the spyplot reader doesn't have the information it needs; so it will not let me update the pipeline. Any suggestions? Thank you in advance.
