[vtk-developers] Re: Problem with vtkDataSetReader

[Randall Hand]

Ok.. I found a workaround by changing my data convertion & computation
programs to use vtkDoubleArray's instead of vtkFloatArray's. Of course, this
doubles the size of my VTK files, but I don't see why this would change the
segfault/success aspect of anything?

Ideas?
