Re: [Paraview] Auto-load plugin failed
Hi Jerome, I assume once you load your xml plugin from the plugin_loader, and check the "Auto Load" checkbox, the next time you start paraview, your xml plugin is loaded automatically, no? Also, you can set up an environment variable "PV_PLUGIN_PATH", which paraview will search by default to load plugins automatically. Now regarding the warning message, I believe it is due to the new addition to ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN macro in ParaViewPlugins.cmake (see below), and the version shown in the plugin_loader_GUI refers to plugin "Version" you set when calling ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN in CMakeLists.txt ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN(Name Version [REQUIRED_ON_SERVER] [REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT] [REQUIRED_PLUGINS pluginname1 pluginname2] ...) New optional arguments for ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN: REQUIRED_ON_SERVER is to specify whether this plugin should be loaded on server REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT is to specify whether this plugin should be loaded on client REQUIRED_PLUGINS is to specify the plugin names that this plugin depends on; Currently this ARG only allow plugin names, and we should later also allow plugin versions to be specified. For a client side only plugin, REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT should be specified; For a server side only plugin, REQUIRED_ON_SERVER should be specified; if a plugin has both server and client components in it, REQUIRED_ON_SERVER and REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT should both be specified, which is also the default. If only one is specified, the other one will be set to false. For example, if REQUIRED_ON_SERVER is specified ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN(Name Version [REQUIRED_ON_SERVER] ...) This plugin will have REQUIRED_ON_SERVER be true, REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT be false.

Re: [Paraview] Auto-load plugin failed
Hi Yumin,
Compiling my XML to expose VTK native filters produces a so/dll library that
can be autoloaded in ParaView. However, I would take advantage on the fact
that this XML may be shared to somebodyelse without the need to own
"ParaView from source". The wiki says: "Alternatively, we can simply load
the XML from the *Plugins Manager* (just select the file type to be *.xml in
the file open dialog)". I want this because of deployment issues see thread
"About on-line available binaries for next release" )
- What have I to add in the XML to give him the same behaviour than its
corresponding compiled library?
Furthermore, I thought that my Autostart plugin (called "PVCustomizer") was
unable to autoload because it depends on my ParaviewVTK XML plugin. But that
is not the case: Even if I load the native VTK filters description with the
compiled version, my PVCustomizer is loadable through the GUI, but it shows
the message "Loaded, but .\PVCustomizer.dll, is not a server manager
plugin!" and no version is displayed although my CMakeLists contains the
following lines:
##
# AUTOSTART PLUGIN --
QT4_WRAP_CPP(MOC_SRCS PVCustomizer.h)
# Macro for auto-start plugins. We specify the class name
# and the methods to call on startup and shutdown on an instance of that
class.
# It fills IFACES and IFACE_SRCS with proper values as needed by
ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN macro.
ADD_PARAVIEW_AUTO_START(IFACES IFACE_SRCS
CLASS_NAME PVCustomizer # the class name for our class
STARTUP onStartup # specify the method to call on startup
SHUTDOWN onShutdown # specify the method to call on shutdown
)
# Create a plugin for this starter
ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN(PVCustomizer "1.0"
REQUIRED_ON_CLIENT
GUI_INTERFACES ${IFACES}
SOURCES PVCustomizer.cxx ${MOC_SRCS} ${IFACE_SRCS}
REQUIRED_PLUGINS ParaviewVTK)
TARGET_LINK_LIBRARIES( PVCustomizer VesselExtractionVTK )
##
I checked "Autoload", having no effect when I restart ParaView...
I looked at the sources, but I cannot understand now why this message is
displayed. I will give a try with a step-by-step procedure.
Thanks a lot for your time, Yumin, and sorry for disturbing...

Jerome

I think this is probably a bug if you check "Auto Load" for the xml,
but it still doesn't auto-load next time.
I suggest to log it in the bug tracker.

I assume you "Rebuilt" the plugin after the new changes, and it still

Re: [Paraview] Auto-load plugin failed
Thanks Yumin,
- For the XML auto-load failure, I will post it in the bug tracker. Do I
have access to mantis with an universal authentification? Or do I have to
request for a login/pass?
- For the autostart plugin that shows the warning, I will try with a minimal
build environment and post it as bug (if it is confirmed).
