[Paraview] custom filters missing from menus

[Biddiscombe, John A.]

Utkarsh

The plugins are loaded on client and server (did you really need to ask?)

I had an idea which I tested. I have custom panels (dockwindows), which create proxies, when the gui starts up, the proxies are generated correctly. Then I connect to a server, panels are still ok, but proxeies have been destroyed. I may have messup up my callbacks to the server closed and reopened after the changes to connection manager. Menus are now gone from plugins.

However. if I disable plugins autoload, then connect to server, then manually load plugins - panels work correct because proxies are correctly created on the server and menus are available.

for now I can manually load plugins (yawn) and fix my unregistering of proxies when the server is disconnected and reconnected - this might be enough - but if you can see/say why the menus fail to appear - then any clues are welcome. Try a simple plugin (eg point sprite). when autoloaded and a connection is made - fail - when manually loaded afterwards - ok - can you duplicate that? yes ?

Oh before I started debugging this, you mentioned plugins, so are
these custom filters being loaded from a plugin? If so, is the plugin
being loaded on the server too? Unlike before, filter xmls are now
exclusively loaded from the server.
