[Paraview] Catalyst question

[Andy Bauer]

Hi John,

This live capability is now available and recently has been cleaned up
quite a bit. There are still a couple more small changes that are waiting a
code review process before they go into the master branch. The user's guide
needs an update for a bunch of new information (live, catalyst editions,
zero-copy arrays) that's important for Catalyst. We're also doing some
preliminary testing with a newly developed ADIOS writer for better IO
performance as well.

Getting back to the live viz stuff, when you create a Catalyst Python
script and export it using the wizard you'll have the option to enable live
viz (it's the same wizard page as the screenshot output specification).
Then, while your simulation is running use the Catalyst->Connect option to
connect. There are two tests (pv.CatalystLiveSetBreakpoint and
pvcs.CatalystLiveSetBreakpoint) that demonstrate the newly implemented live
functionality which now includes the option to set a breakpoint in the
simulation.

If you get a chance to try it out, let me know what you think.

Andy
