 Thanks Eric, all,

but this does not seem to work at all. My loop looks something like this:

input = self.GetInputDataObject(0, 0)
output = self.GetOutputDataObject(0)
if input.IsA(vtkMultiBlockDataSet):
iter = input.NewIterator()
iter.UnRegister(None)
iter.InitTraversal()
i=1
while not iter.IsDoneWithTraversal():
curInput = iter.GetCurrentDataObject()
curInformation = curInput.GetInformation()
print i
print iter.GetCurrentMetaData()
# This is where I want to query for the current name, line does
not work
print iter.GetCurrentMetaData().Get(iter.GetCurrentMetaData.NAME)
i=i+1
iter.GoToNextItem();

The output of print iter.GetCurrentMetaData() looks like this:

vtkInformation (0x3808f00)
Debug: Off
Modified Time: 269417
Reference Count: 2
Registered Events: (none)
DONT_PRUNE: 1
NAME: my_given_name

I want to work wit the NAME attribute ('my_given_name in this case)
but I don't know how...?

 Hey Bastian,

 I think you should be able to just use the Get() method to pull out
 that information key. When I want to find current time step
 information on some pipeline data (with a programmable filter), which
 has information that looks like this:

 vtkInformation (0x11dd723d0)
 Debug: Off
 Modified Time: 70754
 Reference Count: 2
 Registered Events: (none)
 DATA_NUMBER_OF_GHOST_LEVELS: 0
 DATA_TIME_STEPS: 0
 DATA_PIECE_NUMBER: 0
 DATA_EXTENT_TYPE: 0
 DATA_NUMBER_OF_PIECES: 1

 I can do it with these commands:

 pdi = self.GetInputDataObject(0,0)
 current_time = pdi.GetInformation().Get(pdi.DATA_TIME_STEPS(),0)

 So you might be able to just put NAME() in where I put DATA_TIME_STEPS().

 Talk to you later,
 -Eric

Re: [Paraview] vtkCellLocator: Python

2010-05-28 Thread Utkarsh Ayachit
Andy,

Bastian wants to use the cell locator in a python programmable --
which won't involve any fetching.

Bastian,
You can create a cell locator in your programmable filter simply by:

locator = vtk.vtkCellLocator()

 You could also fetch the data set to the client and then use the vtk wrapped
 classes in paraview.vtk to use the cell locator if the class has been
 wrapped but the fetch operation should be used with caution.

 Dear all,

 can I use vtkCellLocator from within Pyhon oder the Python programmable
 filter? If yes, how? Or do I need to write my own filter in c++? Thanks.

Unfortunately some of the locator api is pass by reference and therefore not
wrapped by python.  Bastian, let us know if you run into missing methods
when trying to use the cell locator in python.

Re: [Paraview] vtkCellLocator: Python

2010-05-28 Thread BastiL2001
Thanks Andi,

I will do this. What I am planning to do is to create a scalr field with some 
distance information as an output.

Another issue: I want to loop oder a multi-block dataset with an iterator in a 
programmable filter (works) and find out the name of the currently visited 
block. Is that possible? Thanks.

Regards Bastian
