[Paraview] Python Reader

[Paul Edwards]

Hi Patrick,

Have you tried adding a StringVectorProperty to your XML for a filename
(with <FileListDomain name="files"/>) and having a GUI XML file for adding a
reader?  I think someone suggested you look at the helix source xml (
http://paraview.org/gitweb?p=ParaView.git;a=blob;f=Examples/Plugins/HelixSource/helix.xml;h=d6c385561d9cdffc5298ced17d700bae8bc167b6;hb=HEAD)
and you can see how to add the GUI XML file in the other reader example (
http://paraview.org/gitweb?p=ParaView.git;a=tree;f=Examples/Plugins/Reader;hb=HEAD
)

Note: I haven't actually tried this as I'm not at a computer today with the
source on it.

Regards,
Paul
