Package: libvtk5
Version: 5.0.1-4
Severity: normal

Hi!

I found a bug in VTK library: it fails to correctly read two-dimensional
PLOT3D solution (Q) files.


Steps to reproduce the bug (using MayaVi, version 1.5-4):

  Extract the attached gzipped tar archive (which includes a test PLOT3D
  geometry+solution pair of files, along with a Fortran77 program that
  generates it)

  $ tar xvzf VTK_PLOT3D_testcase.tar.gz
  fakehurr_merid.q
  fakehurr_merid.xyz
  gen_fakehurr.f
  $ mayavi

  Using menus, select File -> Open -> PLOT3D file -> Multi-block file.
  As XYZ Co-ordinate file, select `fakehurr_merid.xyz'; as Q Solution
  file, select `fakehurr_merid.q'.
  In the configuration dialog window, select, say, density and momentum,
  and then click on the More Options button.  In the detailed dialog
  window, check BinaryFileOn, DebugOn, DoNotReduceNumberOfOutputsOn,
  HasByteCountOn, MultiGridOn, TwoDimensionalGeometryOn; *un*check
  the other checkboxes (that is to say: AbortExecuteOn, ForceReadOn,
  IBlankingOn, ReleaseDataFlagOn).  Select SetByteOrderToLittleEndian
  and click on the Ok button.
  Back in the configuration dialog window, click on the Re-read data
  file button.
  On stderr, various vtkPLOT3DReader debug messages appear, among which:

  : setting ErrorCode to 0
  : Geometry number of grids: 1
  : Geometry, block 0 dimensions: 31 41 1
  : Q number of grids: 1
  : Q, block 0 dimensions: 31 41 8
  : setting ErrorCode to 20005
  : Geometry and data dimensions do not match. Data file may be corrupt.

  VTK wrongly thinks that the Q block has 31x41x8 nodes, while
  it actually has 31x41x1 nodes (being two-dimensional).
  Hence the dimension mismatch between geometry and data.

  Trying to visualize data fails.  For instance, using menus, select
  Visualize -> Modules -> ContourGridPlane: selecting Z-axis and
  checking Show Contours in the configuration dialog window fails
  to show any contours.


Now the good news: I studied the vtkPLOT3DReader source code and
detected the cause of this bug.
A patch against VTK version 5.0.1 is attached: it fixes this bug for
both vtkPLOT3DReader and vtkMultiBlockPLOT3DReader classes.  While I
was at it, I also discarded some useless variable loading in some
PLOT3D functions, fixed a misleading debug message, fixed a macro
definition in order to make it correct from a fluid dynamics point of
view (even though this has currently no practical effect, since
the extraneous multiplying factor is 1.0), and fixed some comments.


OK, I hope this patch can be applied to vtk Debian package and also
incorporated into the official VTK development branch.


Finally the legal details.

Changes to VTK source code done by Francesco Poli in order to fix bugs:

 * IO/vtkPLOT3DReader.cxx
    -> fixed a bug in ReadQHeader() that prevented 2D files to be read
    -> discarded useless StagnationEnergy loading in some PLOT3D function
       computation methods
    -> fixed a debug message
    -> fixed VTK_PINF macro definition (irrelevant as long as
       VTK_RHOINF is 1.0, but anyway...)
    -> fixed some wrong comments

 * IO/vtkMultiBlockPLOT3DReader.cxx
    -> fixed a bug in ReadQHeader() that prevented 2D files to be read
    -> discarded useless StagnationEnergy loading in some PLOT3D function
       computation methods
    -> fixed a debug message
    -> fixed VTK_PINF macro definition (irrelevant as long as
       VTK_RHOINF is 1.0, but anyway...)
    -> fixed some wrong comments
