[Paraview-developers] where in reader is best place to initialize data arrays?...

[Joshua Murphy]

Hello,

Hopefully this can be answered quickly by someone in the know…

I am tracking down a restore state bug in my reader, and I have nailed it down to the following situation:

When restoring state, ParaView is using my setArrayStatus() function before I have finished initializing my array list within RequestInformation().

This causes the on/off status of the arrays in the state being restored to be ignored, as I clobber them when I initialize the list.

My question is this: where should I be populating my list of available arrays if not in RequestInformation()?  The way I have it set up now works fine for when I load data from scratch, but when restoring from a state, as I said, ParaView is trying to set the on/off state of the arrays before I am done populating the available arrays…


I hope someone can give me a quick answer… again the question boils down to this: where, and at what point, should I be populating my available array list so that it will be initialized already when ParaView attempts to change the status during a state restore?

Thanks,
Josh
