[Paraview] Bug in PLOT3D meta reader

[Eric Lynch]

I believe there is a bug in the PLOT3D metafile reader.  I've attached two
PLOT3D meshes and a metafile.  Version 5.4.1 appears to read the metafile
successfully.  After reading it, I can see the outline of the two blocks in
the first mesh file.  If I advance to the next time step, I can see the
outline of the three blocks in the second mesh.  If I then go back to the
previous time step, I get an error message saying:



ERROR: In
/home/buildslave/dashboards/buildbot/paraview-pvbinsdash-linux-shared-release_superbuild/build/superbuild/paraview/src/VTK/IO/Parallel/vtkMultiBlockPLOT3DReader.cxx,
line 1397 vtkMPIMultiBlockPLOT3DReader (0x6b53260): Encountered premature
end-of-file while reading the geometry file (or the file is corrupt).

To my knowledge, the last version without this bug was 4.3.1.



Thanks,
