Matt,
I think that you will have to packetize your data for DX--meaning if
you want to visualize data as it streams in, you will need to have a
way to break it into meaningful complete data chunks and visualize as
each piece arrives. The data model does not have support directly for
partial object visualization.
For example, if you have a large set of data on a recti-linear grid
(5000 x 5000) to be visualized, and the stream of data is sent a
block at a time, (500 x 500) in 100 chunks, then you could make each
500 x 500 block a single object that could then be collected as
either series data or a multi-grid that could then be visualized.

Hello,
Would like to ask if anyone has used OpenDX with inbound streamed
data. In other words, most examples seem to show OpenDX providing
visualizations for complete datasets that are already imported. In
contrast, I'd like to visualize data as it arrives into DX.
Obviously there needs to be some sort of refresh mechanism to update
the visualizations based on the new data since the last refresh.
However, I'm just looking to understand how this can be implemented.
Can objects (fields, arrays) be visualized while data is still
arriving?
From the VPE perspective, I'm a little unsure how this would be
implemented, given the associated C routine is not supposed to have
a notion of state. However, I'm not bent right now on which
interface to use (VPE, callm, etc.). I just want to understand the
method by which this can be accomplished, if at all. Hopefully, it
can be.
Thanks,
