[vtkusers] A question about VTK Files...

[Sergio Andrés]

Hello all,

I would like to use a VTK File (XML Format) to store a PolyData dataset. 

Furthermore, I want to include new necessary information in this file, 
by defining new customized XML tags that delimit my own data.

For instance:
----------------------------------------------------------------------

<VTKFile type="PolyData" version="0.1" byte_order="LittleEndian"
    compressor="vtkZLibDataCompressor">
  <PolyData>
    <Piece NumberOfPoints="26" NumberOfVerts="0" NumberOfLines="1"
         NumberOfStrips="0" NumberOfPolys="3">
      <Points>
       ....
      <Points>


      <MY_OWN_DATA>
       ....
      </MY_OWN_DATA>


      <PointData>
      <PointData>
      <CellData>
      <CellData>
      <Verts>
      <Verts>
      <Lines>
        .....
      <Lines>
      <Strips>
      <Strips>
      <Polys>
        ......
      <Polys>
    <Piece>
  <PolyData>
<VTKFile>
----------------------------------------------------------------------

I am not sure that this is the right way to do this, since it could be 
problematic for VTK Readers.

Maybe, it is better to include my own data in another file.... 

If someone can give me some advice about it, I would appreciate it.

Thanks !!

Sergio.
