[Paraview-developers] servermanager XML

[Daniel Wilches Maradey]

Hello,

I'm facing the same problem, the documentation that I can find online
is very scarse, for example I don't see any page where they explain
which XML elements can go inside of the ServerManager configuration
file.

I checked those 2 files suggested by Sebastien but I don't find
helpful the documentation inside either file.

What I'm trying to do is also a plugin, and I have found examples like
this that don't work as expected:

<StringVectorProperty
name="xyz"
command="SetParameter"
number_of_elements="2"
default_values_delimiter=";"
default_values="length;2">
</StringVectorProperty>

When I put that in my XML it shows a field in the GUI, and my code
says that  the value of "length is 2", but if I change the value and
click "Apply" I see that the value of the parameter "length" is not
being updated.

Where can I find information as for why that doesn't work or how should be done?

Thanks.
