You cannot call a function on the panel from the reader. ParaView is designed to work in client-server configurations. In that case the reader object is located on the server process with the panel is located on the client and there's no way for the reader to call a method on the client. If there's some information that you want to pass from the reader to the panel, we have information_only properties for that. At opportune times, the panel can call vtkSMProxy::UpdatePropertyInformation() and have the information_only properties repopulated by fetching server-side values.
To call a method on the reader from the panel, we have properties for that. You define a property in XML and then update it from the panel and call vtkSMPRoxy::UpdateVTKObjects() to push the property value.
