[vtkusers] Where is vtkThreadedController?

[Matt McCormick]

Hi,

According to the FAQ, the vtkThreadedController should be helpful for
parallel processing without MPI

  http://www.vtk.org/Wiki/VTK/FAQ#Is_VTK_thread-safe_.3F


Yet, vtkThreadedController is no longer present in vtk-5.  Why?

The last reference I see is here:

  http://thread.gmane.org/gmane.comp.lib.vtk.user/35787/focus=35792


Has vtkSocketController replaced vtkThreadedController?

  http://www.vtk.org/doc/nightly/html/classvtkSocketController.html


I was trying to build

  Examples/ParallelProcessing/Generic/Cxx/PipelineParallelism.cxx

which also references vtkThreadedController.  However, it fails
because it also uses the no-longer-present vtkInputPort.


Any tips on how to fix the example are appreciated.

Thanks,
Matt
