[vtkusers] Is vtkUnsignedCharScalars available?

[Dai Chong]

Hi,

I am a new vtk user. And I am doing a project in
medical visualization.

I want to convert a 3D raw data file
(256*256*256,structured points, 1 byte for each point)
to an appropriate vtk source object. 

The data in the file are composed of unsigned char, so
the natural way is to use vtkUnsignedCharScalars.But
it seems only vtkFloatScalars exists.I don't want to
use vtkFloatScalars because this will increase the
memory for storing the data. Is there any
implementation of vtkUnsignedCharScalars available?

By the way, is there any other way to transfer my data
to appropriate vtk source object?

have a nice day!

Dai Chong
