[Paraview] Building a ParaView plugin

[John Haiducek]

I downloaded a new vtk class (vtkAddTetraLayer) from
http://www.vision.ee.ethz.ch/~blloyd/Extrusion/. I compiled the
vtkAddTetraLayer.cxx to a shared library. I can then load the plugin using
the Server Manager XML file, but when I try to use it I get:

ERROR: In
/home/haiduced/Downloads/ParaView-3.8.1/Servers/Common/vtkProcessModule.cxx,
line 1065
vtkProcessModule (0x861b60): Cannot create object of type
"vtkAddTetraLayer".
while processing
Message 0 = New
  Argument 0 = string_value {vtkAddTetraLayer}
  Argument 1 = id_value {1068}



ERROR: In
/home/haiduced/Downloads/ParaView-3.8.1/Servers/Common/vtkProcessModule.cxx,
line 1066
vtkProcessModule (0x861b60): Aborting execution for debugging purposes.

So ParaView doesn't know about this vtk class. Is there a way to tell
ParaView that the class is defined in the shared library
vtkAddTetraLayer.so? Is there a way to access this new class from ParaView
without recompiling VTK and ParaView from scratch?
