Hi Adam: Below is some excerpted info (courtesy of Ricardo Reis) on how to check EnSight file formats using 'ens_checker'.
===excerption==== In this links you (and everyone else) can find the program ens_checker which checks if your files are properly formated for the ensight layout. It checks for binary and ASCII files. ens_checker.32 is for 32 bit platforms, ens_checker.64 for 64 bit. Linux off course. http://aero.ist.utl.pt/~rreis/ens_checker.32 http://aero.ist.utl.pt/~rreis/ens_checker.64 hope it can be of use. just do ./ens_checker.<32/64> filename.case ====end of excerption==== -Zhanping -- Zhanping Liu, PhD Kitware, Inc. 28 Corporate Drive Clifton Park, NY 12065-8662 Phone: 518-371-3971 x 138 http://www.zhanpingliu.org On Mon, Jun 15, 2009 at 1:09 PM, Zhanping Liu <[email protected]>wrote: > Hi Adam: > > The error message is now on line 259, > vtkEnSightGoldBinaryReader.cxx (as of the version of May 14, 2009), as > opposed to line 242 that you report.
