[Paraview] [paraview] Cannot create object of type "vtkCSVImageReader"

[papa ndéné NDIAYE]

I only changed "SERVER_MANAGER_SOURCES vtkCVSImageReader.cpp" to
"SERVER_MANAGER_SOURCES vtkCSV ImageReader.cpp" and the corresponding file
name. I didn't touch the class name (which was already vtkCSVImageReader)
neither in the xml, nor in the .h.
and I can't figure out why there is a *symbol lookup error *since I also
tried to build the *ExampleDockPanel *in the
paraview>example>plugin>Dockwidget and it works.

here I append my source code maybe the problem is that I didn't implement
the *New()* function?:
*vtkCSV ImageReader.cpp*:

vtkStandardNewMacro(vtkCSVImageReader);
int vtkCSVImageReader::RequestInformation (
   vtkInformation*,
   vtkInformationVector**,
   vtkInformationVector* outputVector)
{
   vtkInformation* outInfo = outputVector->GetInformationObject(0);

   return 1;
}

int vtkCSVImageReader::RequestData(
   vtkInformation*,
   vtkInformationVector**,
   vtkInformationVector* outputVector)
{
   vtkInformation* outInfo = outputVector->GetInformationObject(0);
   vtkStructuredGrid* output =
vtkStructuredGrid::SafeDownCast(outInfo->Get(vtkDataObject::DATA_OBJECT() )
);
   vtkPoints* pts= output->GetPoints();


vtkDataArray* dummy=vtkDataArray::CreateDataArray(VTK_FLOAT);
dummy->SetNumberOfTuples(8);
dummy->SetNumberOfComponents(3);
const float P1[3]={0.,0.,0.};
const float P2[3]={1.,0.,0.};
const float P3[3]={0.,1.,0.};
const float P4[3]={1.,1.,0.};
const float P5[3]={0.,0.,1.};
const float P6[3]={1.,0.,1.};
const float P7[3]={0.,1.,1.};
const float P8[3]={1.,1.,1.};
dummy->SetTuple(0, P1);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P2);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P3);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P4);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P5);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P6);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P7);
dummy->SetTuple(0, P8);
pts->SetData(dummy);

   return 1;
}


 *vtkCSV ImageReader.h*:
class vtkCSVImageReader : public vtkStructuredGridAlgorithm
{
public:
    static vtkCSVImageReader* New();
    vtkTypeMacro(vtkCSVImageReader,vtkStructuredGridAlgorithm);
    void PrintSelf(ostream& os, vtkIndent indent);

    virtual void SetFileName(const char* fname);
    virtual const char* GetFileName();
    virtual void SetFieldDelimiterCharacters(
       const char* delim);
    virtual const char* GetFieldDelimiterCharacters();

protected:
   vtkCSVImageReader();
   ~vtkCSVImageReader();

   int RequestInformation(
      vtkInformation*,
      vtkInformationVector**,
      vtkInformationVector*);

   int RequestData(
      vtkInformation*,
      vtkInformationVector**,
      vtkInformationVector*);

   vtkDelimitedTextReader * Reader;

private:
   vtkCSVImageReader(const vtkCSVImageReader&);
   void operator=(const vtkCSVImageReader&);
};


PS: I do include the vtkObjectFactory

Great thanks
