[Paraview] compilation error

[Rakesh Hammond]

Thanks - that was one of them annoying errors !

I would like vtkMyFancyReader to create an instance of another class, say
myReader.h which doesn't extend from a vtkClass - how would I create this
class?

Can i add myReader.cxx as SOURCE in the CMake below?

ADD_PARAVIEW_PLUGIN(MyFancyReader "1.0"
             SERVER_MANAGER_XML readers.xml
             SERVER_MANAGER_SOURCES vtkMyFancyReader.cxx
             SOURCES vtkReader.cxx
               GUI_RESOURCES pqReader.qrc
               )

This compiles, but is this the write way to go?  My confusion is that,
myReader.h also need reside on the server ( i assume?), but I don't think I
need to extend it from a vtkClass as I don't any functionalities from it -

What I do need is be able to do the following in vtkMyFancyReader.cxx

myReader reader = new myReader();
reader.doSomething();

what is the correct way to go about it?

Thanks,
Rakesh
