Hi Andy,

our optimization software is able to stream live results via http when configured. This stream is pointed at a continuous running webservice that saves the current progress. A user can for example view the current scalar variables over the steps to make sure the problem converges: http://eamc075.eam.uni-erlangen.de
Simple 2D data should also be viewable at some point.
Now comes catalyst:
The webservice should also be able to redirect the data to a catalyst instance. A user can enter the ip and port online and will receive the data from the webservice onto his local machine. The data is in general not bulky so I can send all data to the client and do the processing on the machine running paraview/catalyst.

This means that the client catalyst will never directly connect to the simulation or vice versa in our use case.

Regards,
Simon

Hi Simon,

Currently there's nothing that allows the coprocessor to get information
that the user has clicked on the extract icon during a Catalyst Live
connection. You may be able to hack in a solution though by looking at
either vtkLiveInSituLink (
https://www.paraview.org/ParaView/Doc/Nightly/www/cxx-doc/classvtkLiveInsituLink.html)
or coprocessing.py.

By the way, I'm curious about the use case for this -- what functionality
are you hoping to do with this information? FYI: we're hoping to add
significant functionality in the near future for Catalyst Live so something
like that may be supported in the near future.

Best,
Andy

Hi,

is there any way that the coprocessor can detect if the catalyst user
clicks on the extract icon? Something like a function that sleeps until a
new coprocess steps needs to be done.
Or do I have to continuously poll the catalyst client if it needs a new
batch of data transmitted?

Simon
