Hello!
I have done the work to write a custom reader plugin and can show extension
in the Open File dialog.
But now, I have another question.
My reader seems do NOT work!
In my reader code, I used RequestInformation, RequestData, and ReadMetaData
which was executed in RequestInformation.
But it doesn't work!!
Should I use RequestDataObject to create a output data object? Or I can do
this in RequestInformation with :
vtkInformation *outInfo = outputVector->GetInformationObject(0);


Thank you so much!
