[Paraview] Catalyst: dump everything in C++

[Lokman Rahmani]

Hi Matthieu! 

I investigated the same question recently, here is what I found so far. 

In Catalyst/CoProcessing the python script is used to create a vtk pipeline 

--------- 
vtkNew<vtkCPPythonScriptPipeline> pipeline; 
pipeline->Initialize(scriptPath) 
--------- 

This pipeline will be passed to vtk processor that will do the CoPorcessing by executing the pipeline 

------ 
vtkCPProcessor* Processor = vtkCPProcessor::New(); 
Processor->Initialize(); 
Processor->AddPipeline(pipeline.GetPointer()); 
Processor->CcProcess(...) 
------ 

checking the souce code of VtkCPProcessor ( https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/blob/master/CoProcessing/Catalyst/vtkCPProcessor.h ) 

---- 

/// Add in a pipeline that is externally configured. Returns 1 if /// successful and 0 otherwise. virtual int AddPipeline ( vtkCPPipeline * pipeline ); 
------- 

a vtkCPProcessor object can add a pipeline of any class extending the vtkCPPipeline (which is a an abstract class) 

Beside of the official python implementation ( https://gitlab.kitware.com/paraview/paraview/blob/master/CoProcessing/PythonCatalyst/vtkCPPythonScriptPipeline.h ) I am not aware of any other implementation. 

Otherwise, you can to implement your own implementation (which looks very time consuming ...). 
http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/Tutorials/New_Pipeline 

Hope this helps. 

I'll be interested if some one is aware of any c++ implementation of the pipeline. 

Best, 
Lokman
