Hey Nicholas, If you build ParaView with XDMF_WRAP_PYTHON: ON, then the build process should generate _Xdmf.so (or whatever your platform's extension is for python module libraries) in the [build]/bin directory. If that is in your PYTHONPATH, you should be able to substitute "from _Xdmf import *" instead of the example's original first line.
There may be a more elegant way to install it so you can use the original line and not have to alter your PYTHONPATH, but hopefully this will get you started until someone more knowledgeable speaks up. Note that if you build ParaView with Python support, the other thing that should get built is libvtkXdmfPython.so, which includes the vtkXdmfReader and Writer, which can be very handy. Talk to you later, -Eric ------------------------------------------------------ Eric E Monson Duke Visualization Technology Group On Oct 15, 2010, at 7:18 PM, Nicholas Yue wrote: > Hi, > > I understand that Paraview has Xdmf support. > > I tried executing the examples from the following link > > http://www.xdmf.org/index.php/Write_Xdmf > > the python shell in Paraview says that the Xdmf module is not found. > > Any ideas ? > > Regards > > _______________________________________________ > Powered by www.kitware.com > > Visit other Kitware open-source projects at > http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html > > Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: > http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView > > Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: > http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview _______________________________________________ Powered by www.kitware.com Visit other Kitware open-source projects at http://www.kitware.com/opensource/opensource.html Please keep messages on-topic and check the ParaView Wiki at: http://paraview.org/Wiki/ParaView Follow this link to subscribe/unsubscribe: http://www.paraview.org/mailman/listinfo/paraview
