[Paraview] LSDynaReader interfering with my own reader

[Thompson, David C]

The messages should not be output... they are coming from
LSDyna's CanReadFile() method. I thought I had disabled
them but I'll look into it again. If it is reading your
file, then LSDyna's CanReadFile is returning the correct
value.

The problem is that LSDyna's output files don't have an
extension (they are named d3plot, d3plot01, ...) and
ParaView requires either a matching extension or (if you
put always_try_can_read="1" in the Module tag of the GUI
XML file) for CanReadFile to return true.

Subject: [Paraview] LSDynaReader interfering with my own reader
 
I have a custom reader that reads files with an extension of ".disl".  
I have my own reader for these files which worked fine under PV  
2.4.4. I am now updating for PV 2.6 and when I run ParaView and  
select my file for reading I get the following dumped to the console.

ErrorMessage

OpenSource/ParaView-2.6.0/VTK/Hybrid/vtkLSDynaReader.cxx (2473)

Then my reader kicks in and reads the file just fine. I looked for  
the obvious that the LSDynaReader was also using the ".disl"  
extension but from what I can tell it is not. Anyone have any ideas  
on this?
