[Paraview] pvpython and vtk classes and functions to create objects

[Utkarsh Ayachit]

Yes, you just need to import the appropriate module in python.
e.g.

 @exportRpc("my.test.rpc")
    def myTestRPCFunction(self):

        from paraview.vtk.vtkIOImage import vtkImageReader2Factory
        reader = vtkImageReader2Factory.CreateImageReader(filename)

        from paraview.vtk.vtkFiltersTexture import vtkTextureMapToPlane
        texturePlane.SetInputConnection(reader.GetOutputPort())

        ....

        return 0
